Find Ancestors

It was the same one that I found. All the children were Christened there.

Thank you Pat - I found John christened at St Thomas Portsmouth in 1805! Surely they would not have coffed up for 2 christenings?

Found another sibling, John, Christened in 1805 in the same church.

Looks like that's it. Too many Sarah Cummings, John may not be from Hampshire.

:-)

Found this, wonder if gaps between children mean he's a sailor?

Thank you Pat and Brummiejan, the 1861 came up trumps for me too, on the GR single line and gave William as Portsmouth but I got Keziah for the wifes spelling even if she had got 2 years younger! Portsea and Portsmouth are towards synonymous so you have found me Williams family. I am having a good day.....

Hi brummiejan now you have really upset the pigeons with your cat! but I suppose it is possible that the parents replaced the dead baby with another child of the same name - not an uncommon practice at that time.
The Keziah in 1851 suggests a birth of c.1798. Are there any other places apart from IGI that detail births before 1837?

If so, though age somewhat out. Not sure what the death means, is this correct or submitted??:

Good Morning all and thank you for finding the Charlesworth family in 1841.
I have been trying to find the births of the parents, William and Keziah (Cassia some places) with no success so far. Is there any sign of them in 1851 please, perhaps with a 'modified surname', as I am failing to see them in my searching.

Many thanks,
Frances

Thank you brummiejan and Prickly Holly. William and Keziah are great. There is a grandaughter Keziah born 1876ish but I am syill perplexed by all the changes made by GenedReunited and IGI - sleuthing ancestors used to be fun but now it is just hardwork for this old wrinkly!
