Mary Loveridge – Birth/ Baptism Record
« on: Wednesday 28 May 25 09:03 BST (UK) »


Hi Guys

Yet again I need your assistance please. For some reason this part of my family is proving difficult to find the necessary information.

This time I’m looking for the birth/ baptism record of Mary Loveridge. It appears that Mary was born in 1754 in Northamtonshire. The name of her parents would also be a great help.

From information previously provided it appears that Mary was married to Edward Bannister in 1776 in Thenford, Northamptonshire.

Many thanks for looking
Regards
Pegwill

There is a tree on Ancestry (not necessarily accurate) which has her baptism at St Mary, Whitechapel 29 March 1752 (parents William and Hannah LOVERIDGE of Church Lane).

I would be dubious about this, except that the baptism of Edward and Mary BANNISTER's daughter Rosamond on 17 Sept 1780 at Blisworth, Nothamptonshire says that the parents were 2 travellers.

Do you have any other information from the marriage - witnesses or abode?

It is a Romany surname, maybe there was no baptism  :-\

Hi Guys

Thank you for your comments/observations.

It seems that this is probably the end of this particular line of research especially if Mary turns out to be of Romany extraction.

Thanks once again

Regards

There is a lot of information available about the Romany and other Traveller families - just do the research in the same way you would research a member of the settled community.

See if you can find a copy of My Ancestors were Gypsies (a SOG publication) in a library and have a read.

Also have a look at the Romany and Traveller Family History Society website for some more helpful advice - make sure you look at the free records section.

Loveridge is a well know Romany surname and there is probably someone out there who is researching the same family as you.
