Find Ancestors

I am looking for a baptism record for Edward Phelps, son of Thomas Harper Phelps and Keturah Phelps. He was born CA 1815 in either Worcestershire (most likely the City of Worcester) or Woodstock, Oxfordshire, England. He is listed as 25 years old in the 1841 census, but I have been told ages in the census can be +- 5 years from true age.

He may be listed by the name of Edward Smithsend Phelps

Also looking for the Baptism record of James Harper Phelps b. CA 1824 in Woodstock, Oxfordshire, son of Thomas Harper Phelps and Keturah Phelps.

thank you

Mark Phelps

Not seeing an Edward but ....

gender: Female
baptism/christening date: 03 Mar 1833
baptism/christening place: SAINT PETER,WORCESTER,WORCESTER,ENGLAND
:
death date: 07 Aug 1843
:

"
------------------------------------------------------

name: Joseph Harvey Phelps
gender: Male
baptism/christening date: 11 Sep 1836
baptism/christening place: SAINT PETER,WORCESTER,WORCESTER,ENGLAND
:

father's name: Thomas Phelps
:
mother's name: Keturah




Maybe Edward was born before his mother married Thomas in which case he would have her surname.

Wondering if this is the couple in 1861

According to a tree on Ancestry she was Johnson ( is this your tree ?)


Thomas Harper Phelps 1789 – 1870
Keturah Johnson 1794 – 1867


Keturah Johnson
Birth 16 Mar 1794 in Bladen, Oxfordshire, England

Just checking it was her maiden name ...


name: Keturah Johnson
gender: Female
baptism/christening date: 16 Mar 1794
baptism/christening place: BLADON,OXFORD,ENGLAND

father's name: Thomas Johnson
:
mother's name: Sarah

There is a 5 year gap between Edward's birth and the next child ( James 1821)

So it's possible he was born Johnson
