At the moment I am using Findmypast and Ancestry. I will try a search on the parents.
I will try to find the date of their matti age as a starting point. Thanks for your help.

There are a number of baptisms on FMP in Wetton for Chadwick with parents William and Elizabeth

I am NOT going to post them - I will let Peter have the pleasure of finding them - especially as he doesn't seem actually to wish people to find info for him

The same principle applies, regardless of dates ;-) ;-)

Oh yes - I missed that.

The baptism in question was in 1783, according to the OP’s info

You ask, ". . . is it possible to do a ‘blind’ search for other children using their names alone."

See my post yesterday at 14:48 for the answer.

Try it - which site are you using?

Use the criteria you have - enter in the relevant search boxes
I posted the records as INFO for the people trying to help you

I have all the Chadwick records you listed. My original question related to my great-great grandmother Sarah Chadwick. I do not know if she had any siblings. Given that I know her parents, is it possible to do a ‘blind’ search for other children using their names alone.

:-S :-S :-S :-S :-S :-S :-S

I think I have resolved the Robinson issue

Re Chadwick births -

You say you've found the birth record of your GGGrandmother.
If it was in England or Wales , and not before 1837, you can look it up on the GRO site, and that will show you her mother's maiden surname.

Then you can look for other births with the same combination of parental surnames, remembering to allow for possible differences in spelling.

www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates

You have to register, but it's free to search births 1837 - 1934 and 1984 - 2020, and deaths 1837-1957 and 1984-2020.
Births 1935-1983 and deaths 1958-1983 can be searched in the same way on FreeBMD.
