Lookup for birth record Rhudland Flintshire

[kmomma]

Looking for birth records of Eliza Amelia Gavin, born abt 1846-1848 in Rhuddlan, Flintshire. Parents Edward and Amelia.

[D ap D]

The only Gavin births I could find on the BMD were for :
Henrietta, June qtr 1867, Gt Boughton 8a/389
and
Patrick, Mar qtr 1870, Chester, 8a/376

Also no Gavin births on the North Wales BMD

I suppose there is still a fair amount awaiting transcription.

Perhaps Paul could help you :

I have them living in Kensington 1861

Edward Gavin       53     Barrack Sergeant  born Ireland
Amelia         (wife) 34                                          Liverpool
Peter                      9                                           Chester
Eliza                        5                                          London
Emma                     6                                             do
Lilly                         3                                             do     

looking at the Chester birth it looks possible they were in North Wales and the 'born London' for Eliza may be an error

good luck

I forgot to say that they were living (with loads more) at the Palace Barracks - guarding the Queen perhaps??
