I had details of Emma, but not of Rebecca. Can I ask, William Snr. 1810 you gave parents as Walter Jenkins & Mary Stedder, does that mean Walters' surname was Jenkins or was it Stedder. I am sorry if I am confused, bit late in the day for me (in Australia)

His baptism was in the name of his (unmarried) mother Mary Steader

The IGI stuff was submitted not transcribed from parish registers so always suspect but he appears a few times (also a sister Amelia b 1919 to same parents) and there was that marriage - admittedly 25 yrs later.

on the other hand the parish reg for Amelia say this

9 May 1819 Amelia reputed d/o Wm Thomas, otp, labr by Mary Stedder

other parish regs

24 Mar 1930 John natural s/o Mary Stedder, Park Seymour, spinster

6 Feb 1842 Jas s/o Wm & Rebecca Steddar, otp, labr

19 May 1844 Emma d/o Wm & Rebecca Steddar, otp, labr

is this where the family lore of a Hezekiah might have come from?

21 Jun 1898 Jas Mitchell, 26, B, coachman, otp: Hezekiah Mitchell, game keeper
Emma Jane Steddar, 24, S, otp: Valentine Steddar, labr
Wit:- Posachar Steddar; Felicia Turner Banns

LancashireAnn,

The information about Hezekiah was that my aunt visited U.K. in the 1960's, and she was told by the family, that a Hezekiah was the father of Wyndham, even today she is adamant that was his name. If that was the case that means that it was her sister's father-in-law.
I also noticed a witness to the wedding of Emma was a Posachar Steddar, brother I assume, I have had lots of fun trying to find out is correct name Isaachar, Isacar, J was listed on 1881 census, what do you think

I'd take a guess at another hezekiah

7 Jul 1879 Hezekiah s/o Valentine & Emma Stidder, Hamlet of Llanbeder, labr

Hello everyone,

I am trying to find any details on Amelia Steddar or could be Thomas or Jenkins. The information I have was that Amelia bap 9 May 1819 was reputed to be daughter of Wm. Thomas and her mother was Mary Steddar who later married Walter Jenkins. This information was submitted not transcribed from parish registers on IGI. Any help much appreciated

Also, have found a death of a possible sibling Jessie Wilcox 1924, not sure if the same person, age 56, Malling Kent doesn't quite add up birth year.
