Nathaniel Perkins Birth lookup Please

[vicky0607]

Hello,

Could someone please look up this birth, Nathaniel Perkins Born 1787. (3rd Great GF)
Family Search shows Birth 1787 -    Death 22/3/1836 Leicester. It doesn't state where he was born and no parents listed.

 I've checked every possibility and nothing thus far.  I can't even be sure if he was born in Leicestershire. So if someone is going there and could check the records it would be greatly appreciated.

The familysearch entry that you have quoted is the burial
Nathaniel Perkins
Burial Date 22 March 1836
Leicester, Leicestershire
Age 49
Indexing Project (Batch) Number:   B01917-7
System Origin:    England-EASy
GS Film number:   592564
Reference ID:    p 221 n 1767

That record will not give any information on his birth/christening they have calculated his year of birth from his age at death

I am a bit confused though, really don't understand exactly what I need to do. The death is on FS and the birth is probably calculated. Can you guide me?  Don't know what to do, I've checked as many records from as many places that were suggested and still can't confirm anything.  I'd like to post this on every board throughout England/Wales etc. since I don't know where he's from.

There is no doubt that the birth year showing on the familysearch record for the burial is calculated from his age at death.  Burials in the UK at this time would not give a date of birth.
It is better if you do not post the query on every board as it causes confusion. 

Looking at you Scavenger Hunt it would appear that it has been suggested that you request a look up at the records office for the parishes mentioned below

These Parishes in Leicester aren't covered by IGI for the period around 1787 so he may have been
Christened at one of them.
St. George's
St. Martin's
St. Mary De Castro.
I think Leicester will have to be the starting point in the search.
