ELIZABETH TWIGG - International Genealogical Index / BI Gender: Female Christening: 07 JAN 1781 All Saints, Derby, Derby, England Matches: International Genealogical Index/British Isles - over 25 I searched for births 1780 +/- 10 years. I've eliminated the ones far from Derby (e.g. London) but left some others in. Let me know what parish then we might be able to narrow it down. The christenings will give the parents.

There will be witnesses names recorded. If these are BENNETTs or TWIGGs, they might help you to locate the family group. Marriages were usually in the bride's parish, so looking for baptisms there could provide clues. Have you looked for other TWIGG marriages in that parish? You may find BENNETT witnesses there. Sometimes you have to look at the much broader picture in order to find the information you need. Gwyn
