Given the date of this thread and the last entry it looks as if it is no longer used.

Plus the original poster has NIL posts against their names so probably not using the site anymore

Hi Teresa don,t know if you are still doing look ups for chipping norton but if so can you please look up a Jonathan Hall born about 1815
thanks Jane

Teresa, You are a saint, & so patient looking through all these. I will let you know my email, if thats easier. I will check all these & let you know if (or rather when) I need more info & I will try to be more specific as you request. Thanks Di

Hi Di Still only Chadlington searched so a long way to go first up probable marriage of william snr and sarah William Pratt - Sarah Newbury - 19 October 1777 - chadlington by Banns - John Ward and Mary Ward (I am assuming these 2 names are witnesses but it doesn't actually say) -- There was also this marriage that may connect somewhere William Pratt - Elizabeth harris - 14 april 1788 - chadlington by Banns - James Burden and George Farmer --------------------------------------------------------------- 3 april 1831 Ellen 5 may 1833 william 19 april 1835 James 6 sept 1840 Elijah 5 June 1842 Noah The above are all said to be children of William and sarah ( no maiden name given for mother) - Labourer also this record 25 nov 1849 mary parents william and sarah - Lab - pte Bap nov 1837 - rcd - born 29 nov 1837 pte bap is private baptism but what rcd is I can only guess - maybe recorded. I have checked the years 1800 - 1860 for births but have only given you those for william and sarah - there are others for different parents. -------------------------------------------------------------- Chadlington Burials 1800 - 1860 26 april 1813 william Pratt age 59 19 april 1823 elizabeth Pratt age 79 24 nov 1840 Elizah Pratt infant (I think this could be william and sarahs son mentioned above as Elijah - these are transcribed records so spelling mistakes are to be expected) 18 nov 1848 Richard age 56 9 June 1852 William age 71 20 Nov 1852 Sampson age 32 There are still many names there that are probably applicable so keep asking - however can I ask one thing that you keep each request down to one surname at a time as it can get a little confusing otherwise, given time we will get thru them all I am sure - please keep a record of the years covered and where as i cannot possibly do that for everyone and don't want to end up searching the same time again for now its Chadlington 1800 -1860 I have made a quick scan of a couple of other parishes for the other 2 weddings but no joy as yet I expect to hear from you again - if you let me know your email it would be a lot easier to converse that way teresa

Teresa, Could you possibly help with these look-ups following on from the great info you found on my Graftons & Pratts. I have another three children of William & Sarah Pratt nee Keary - William, James & Mary(I didn't know of an Ann, so maybe this is her?) Could you please look for their baptisms? Also, the marriages of William Pratt snr to Sarah??? sometime before 1781 & Henry Keary to Sarah??? sometime before 1780 & George Grafton to Elizabeth??? sometime before 1813 FYI, I found Sarah Keary on LDS IGI (spelt as Kearry) which agreed with your baptism & showed her death as 27 Feb 1790. Also, found Henry Keary (only one r this time) baptism Chadlington 24 Oct 1781 to same parents. Just one more question, sorry, I assume that OTP mean of the parish, am I correct? Once, again, thanks for all the help Di

Teresa, How brilliant, thank you so much, it must have taken you ages to find this lot. It will probably take me a bit longer to check them all out, but from what I know of siblings etc., they definitely seem to be the right ones. I can't thank you enough & will let you know if I think of anything else. Di

Thanks for trying teresa As you say they are proberbly on another disc . Will keep searching Val

Hi again Val The cd is not searchable only browsable so its hard to tell - there is an index but it only lists the names not when to find them in some parishes on the indexes I can see these For Churchill Baptisms BRYANT Annie 1880 BRYANT Edith Emily 1873 BRYANT Ellen 1869 BRYANT Fred 1877 BRYANT James 1878 BRYANT Susanna 1778 For Chipping Norton Bap there is the one mentioned but no idea of year Bryant Ernest James Levi Sorry thats all for Baptisms - please remember for Chipping Norton the parishes were scanned onto 3 CDs I only have no 1. Teresa

Hi Di Finally Success for someone. There are actually numerous people of the names you mention so a majot task - I can look for others for you but for now I shall answer your original requests - please feel free to come back for more. For Chadlington for the years between 1800 - 1830 Baptisms 29 Dec 1813 William 12 Jan 1816 Eliza 29 March 1818 George 31 Mar 1820 James 5 Apr 1822 Hannah 14 may 1826 Sarah These are all children of George and Elizabeth Grafton so far I have not been able to find an appropriate bap for George Grafton born 1786 --------------------------------------------------- For Chadlington for the years between 1800 - 1830 Baptisms 25 Dec 1821 Ann 4 Jan 1824 Susannah 20 Nov 1825 Sarah 23 Dec 1827 John These are all children of William and Sarah Pratt -------------------------------------------------- This is probably William and Sarahs marriage 24 June 1821 Chadlington William Pratt Bach OTP Sarah Keary Spr OTP Banns - John Pratt and Mary Curtis --------------------------------------------------------- With regards to Baptisms of William Pratt and Sarah Keary - these are the only 2 I could see William Pratt son of William and Sarah 26 Aug 1781 Chadlington Sarah Keary daughter of Henry and Sarah 6 April 1788 Chadlington There was an earlier Sarah born to this couple 9 March 1780 - who most likely died. I could check it if you want. Peruse these and get back to me with what else you may think would help Teresa

Are there any Bryant,s on there ? There would also be a Francis or Frances Bryant around 1920 VAL

Sorry Val not this part of Chipping Norton This is incredibly embarrassing I have only found someone for one person yet it is a fantastic CD - I am researching for a lady and it took me back 5 generations complete with all family members It really does have names on it lol Teresa

Hi Teresa, Thanks for your offer, manna from heaven more like! I have James Grafton b. Churchill c. 1821 & Susannah Pratt b. Churchill c. 1823. I have their marriage cert on Dec 31st 1842 in Chadlington, fathers shown as George Grafton & William Pratt. According to 1841 census, George Grafton b. Oxon c. 1786 (wife Elizabeth c.1786) & William Pratt b. Oxon c. 1786(wife Sarah c.1800), I'm hoping they were also born in the Churchill / Chadlington / Chipping Norton area. If you can find James & Susannahs' births, also anything about their parents, I would appreciate it. If its too hard a job or I haven't given you enough info, please don't worry. Thanks Di

Hello Teresa Could you look up Albert and William Bryant births /baptism Chipping Norton 1916-1922 Thanks Val

Hi Caroline Firstly let me say that these are Baptism Records not birth records so the workhouse is not needed - I have checked chipping Norton itself but no baptism sorry - that said tho she was born in Chipping she could well have been baptised else where Sorry Cannot help unless you know the exact parish of baptism Teresa

Teresa According to her birth cert my g-grandmother was born in the Union Workhouse in Chipping Norton 25th Feb 1891. Does your information cover this as well as I have had trouble locating her and the rest of the family on the 1891 census. Her name was Caroline Emily DOUGLAS. Her father was George James DOUGLAS who married a Caroline TAYLOR. They also had another daughter at that time Elizabeth born 1888. TIA Caroline

Hi Maxine You are correct the name does crop up quite a bit - unfortunately not for what you are wanting. Sorry Teresa

Sorry Debra there are a few Thorntons but not of the names you give Please remember this is not the whole of the chipping Norton parish registers Teresa

Teresa I am after the following which may be in Chipping Norton as the name is common there: Joseph BUSBY marriage between 1840-1860 Daughter Lucy Alice BUSBY born 1859-1861 This may be too vague, but I have no more on my Grandmother Lucy Alice. Each census from 1881 has her birthplace in a different location! Many thanks for the kind offer to all Maxine

Sorry Irene There are a few children for a John and Maria Ann Webly but none for the couple you mention not in any of the parishes on this cd Teresa

Teresa Thank you for looking. I assume that the info you have is C of E parish records. I know that mine were Roman Catholic. I'm sorry I should have mentioned that. Thank you for going to so much trouble, these Stanbridge's are a pain in the ar*e Margaret
