Northamptonshire Baptism Look up Request

[nadine a]

Hi

l am in desperate need of some help or even advice on my search for a William Blackwell of Earls Barton Northamptonshire, l have alot of information on him for the middle part of his life but struggling with the beginning and end , ln 1842 William Blackwell was convicted and sent to Van Diermens Land Australia for 10 years on the ship Candahar and believe from his convict records was released in 1851 as this was the start of the Gold Rush l believe that is where he headed but that is not for sure as l can not find a trace of him after his 1851 release.

My main interest at present is my attempt to find a birth for him from the 1841 Census record l believe he was Born around 1798 he married twice in Earls Barton Northamptonshire but can not find a birth for that area Also on Williams Indent Record it states that he has 2 brothers Thomas and Francis and 2 sisters Mary and Sarah any help with finding 5 matching even possible sibling matches would be Very much appreciated.

Thank you in advance

Kind Regards

Nadine

Hello Nadine

Who did William marry in Earls Barton - do you know ?
There is a William & Elizabeth Blackwell baptised their children -  Sibvey, Hannah, Rebekah & Sarah  between 1817- 1826 the at Baptist Chapel in Earls Barton and a  Francis & Ruth Blackwell who baptised their son Richard in 1835 at the same chapel - Ruth died shortly after the birth of her son in August of that year.

Happy to let you have further details of the baptism entries if these are of interest to you.

No baptism that I can see for William or any of his siblings in the Chapel entries tho'

Thank you all so much you are truely amazing a Quick apology to Captain2 Rebekah baptist 1826 is not my direct Grandmother although she is a Gt Aunt that died young William and Elizabeth Named another daughter Rebekah Baptist 9th March 1830 who IS my Distant Grandmother They also had 2 sons John Baptized 9th Oct 1814 and Thomas Baptized 30th April 1820 and do have their Baptisms Dates but Very Grateful for the additional Birth Dates also l have not seen the unusual Sibvey Birth something for me to look in to , l do have a possible 1841 Census which show that l believe William married a third time as there is 2 deaths for a Elizabeth Blackwell both before the 1841 Census.

H.O.107/801/3 Earls Barton pg 18 Folio 31

l Also thank you very much to mgeneas l have been searching for so long and looks like a brilliant possibility and l am very eager to look in it, l have seen William referred to as william jr but oviously that may not mean from his father as could be a grandparent but then also is very optimistic .

Thank you Again
