All BMD's from 1837 can be found on freebmd

Check it out

How did you get back to 1740 without having all the later info? It doesn't seem plausible

As your search is for Glos......try this

Having said in my PM that there weren't any Roberts/Hogg births, I now find there are a few - I make it 6 - on freebmd.

I was, at the time, using only the GLOS site.

Check freebmd yourself for the names etc
