Thomas WARD, Caistor registers
« on: Friday 25 May 18 08:40 BST (UK) »
Does anyone have access to the Caistor parish registers please?
I am looking for the baptism of Thomas WARD in, or very close to, the year 1789. Thank you.

Thank you. It’s tempting to claim the 1782 entry, but every other record I have of him points to 1789 at Caistor. I need to check the original register to rule out a transcription error or maybe a missed later entry. I don’t think digital images of the Caistor registers are online.

Caistor PRs are availble to view on the lincstothepast site. I have checked 1788-1790 and there are no Ward baptisms, Thomas or otherwise.

Fabulous! Thank you. I shall go browse for family. I thought I checked that website yesterday and it came up blank for Caistor. Probably my poor typing. Thanks again. :)

To have his 1st Child born 2 June 1801 (Baptised 31 July 1821 with several siblings) he must have been born before 1789.
I dont think he would be 12 when this child was born.

You beat me to it Trish - I had just found the death. The given age of 73 fits with the 1782 baptism I gave in my first post.
