Find Ancestors

Hi Margaret,

My g-gf was Alexander Greves BONNER b in 1835 in Stoke Lyne, bap in Ardley (19-04-1835). His father, from the marriage cert, was also Alexander Greves Bonner (Carpenter). I cannot seem to find anything about Alexander the elder or his family and I wondered if you could help, even if it points to them not being in Oxfordshire for very long.

I can find no baptism for Martha Gearing in Wallingford, there are three churches there but only much earlier c1718 baptisms. Sorry Margaret

KAREN

I can find no baptism for a Benjamin Brock as such in either Lower or Upper Heyford. Caulcutt is in the parish of Lower Heyford.

There is however a baptism for

Benjamin 24/6/1821 Upper Heyford, son of Benjamin Bagot and Sarah Brock of Lower Heyford. Baptised as Bagot.

There is a Thomas Brock having children baptised in Upper Heyford but no Benjamin, he starts having children baptised with Frederic 1/4/1827 Upper Heyford his wife was Joanna.

Sarah Brock of Upper Heyford marries Thomas Bateman of Lower Heyford 25/10/1823.

Hope this is of interest

Margaret

Thank you for doing this baptism lookup.

What a shame there is no father given. At least i have his baptism details now. I forgot to say that John named his grandad William Prince (A Farrier) as his father on his marriage cert.

I shall keep a note of the William Prince baptism from St Helens, Abingdon for future reference. Thanks.

Yes you are correct on all the details about Mary Ann Prince. Mary although born in Canada was baptised 26/4/1835 Buckland, Berkshire.

I have access to a members tree on GR who has Mary Ann Prince's father William Prince baptised 24/11/1805 Abingdon. His parents were John Prince baptised 6/10/1675 Abingdon and Mary Simms.This John Prince's parents are Lawrence Prince and Elizabeth Smart who married 19/12/1762 Marcham, Berkshire. I hope this info is correct.

How do i contact Penny Eves.

Paul

PAUL
John Prince was baptised at St Mary Witney Oxfordshire 23/12/1851 sadly there is no father given on the transcript, if Penny Eves offers a look up at the Oxfordshire record office, why don't you ask her to look at the Parish Register to see if the vicar made a note on the register that has not been transcribed. All I can offer is which you probably already have is
Mary Ann Prince married St Mary Witney 24/12/1853 to
David Faulkner full age bachelor of Stamford in Vale an Inn Keeper, father Thomas an InnKeeper.
Mary Ann a Minor spinster daughter of William Prince a Smith witnesses William Prince, Louisa Prince.
According to the census William Prince was born Abingdon and Mary Ann in New Brunswick???? her siblings born variously in Berks and Oxon.

There is a baptism for
William Prince St Helens Abingdon 6/6/1813 son of William and Mary Prince a sacking manufacturer living Vineyard (Mary buried 26/4/1814 St Helens Abingdon aged 36 yrs of Vineyard)
William Prince remarried 10/10/1814 St Helens Abingdon to Ann Goodall.

Hope this is of interest. Margaret

Hi Margaret,
Thank you for your kind offer.

Could you look for a baptism for Martha Gearing about 1786, or maybe a bit earlier ?

Her death certificate says she was born in Wallingford, and her father was Thomas, but I have only that information via her son-in-law who registered the death.

Hi Margaret,
Thankyou so much for that, i really appreciate it.

it is definately a muddle. I will now have to carefully try and decipher which William Reynolds is mine. I can also see by that why a distant relative i have been in contact with may have been confused by thinking the 2 marriages were for the same William.

At least now i wont be bored over the weekend..

Thankyou again very much.

Regards
Lee:)

Hi, im trying to find any siblings for Benjamin Brock born abt 1820 in Hayford, also for his father Thomas brock, not sure if he was born Caulcott, i think he married twice, but not sure,thanks Karen
