There are numerous Lays in Combe which is near Hanborough, but the years for reasonable births of Thomas c 1771 are missing. The one in Hanborough is a possibility.

G'day Margaret & Elizabeth,
Thank you very much for your help. The Handborough Lay could be a possibility because I think from memory that on the marriage record it has Ann from Berks but no place listed for Thomas. Shenington could also be a possibility. This hobby can be so confusing!!!!!

I think it is Shenington , East of Shipston on Stour and West of Banbury, this is far more sensible than a Yorkshire lass being in Berkshire. Margaret Rose.

Do you think this is your Thomas Lay ?
Baptism
08 Apr 1764-Thomas LAY s Richard & Mary at Handborough
Handborough is an ajoining parish to Cassington and there are LOTs of LAYs going back to the late 1500s.
I see in the "Search" section there are others with this Thomas in their tree !
If you think he is yours I can maybe help further as I have the Handborough P/R transcripts.
|
|
Yes , but the P/R transcript says Sinington Berks
|
|
There's a Sinnington in North Yorkshire.
|
|
Thanks Elizabeth,
I have Ann's baptism and the marriage data as well as their children. Trying to find info on Thomas has been my trouble. I guess I just have to keep trying.
Cheers
Alex

Marriage 27 June 1791 at Cassington (Oxon)
Thomas LAY
Ann WHITLEY of Sinington Berks
Cannot find a Sinington but will ask around !
Think it must be Cassington ?
Here is Ann's baptism
05 Oct 1766-Ann d Robert Whitley---no mother given and it is the only Whitley baptism !
Thomas and Ann had quite a few children do you want those too (I have the P/R transcripts) ?
There are no LAY baptisms at Cassington before 1792

Bucklebury lies between the M4 and A4 ( Theale to Chieveley), Cassington is north west of Oxford.
How about 'Sindlesham' for Sininton - it's near Wokingham.
Berks FHS have good records - join them and ask.

Thanks Richard,
If you can find a marriage record for Thomas linking him to Ann Whitely in 1792 in Cassington Oxfordshire that would be brilliant. How close is Bucklebury to Cassington.
