They had 2 children Elizabeth b 1804 Tonge
John Greasely b1806 Breedon he married in 1833 to Hannah Adkin b1811 they had 4 children the one we are interested in is William b 1841 Diseworth.

I think you have been looking for the wrong family. John Greaseley's father was Thomas and according to the 1851 and 1861, he did not marry. Andrew also found his probate to his brother, Robert, a butcher.

So this is the correct baptism for him.

First name(s) John
Last name Ayre
Birth year 1806
Baptism year 1806
Baptism date 06 Apr 1806
Baptism place Breedon on the Hill
Denomination Anglican

Country England
Father's first name(s) John
Mother's first name(s) Mary

OK I'm confused...this John was baptised on the same day that John Greasely Ayre was born?
