parish record look up for Abingdon please
« on: Monday 28 November 05 11:58 GMT (UK) »
If anyone has access to the parish records for Abingdon could they please look up a baptism for Harriet Spokes b. about 1801.  I think she also had a sister or maybe a cousin named Jane Spokes born about 1793. 
Thank you.

Abingdon has three parishes.  I could only find Spokes in St Helens Parish but the other two were only partially transcribed.

William Spokes married Mary Haycroft 15 Jan 1783.  Children baptised:

10 Jun 1783 Ann
29 May 1785 Elizabeth
6 Dec 1787 Mary
6 Jun 1790 Sarah
19 Oct 1800 Harriett  William was a breechesmaker

other Spokes baptisms
24 Dec 1797 William s/o Bryant & Elizth breechesmaker
5 Jan 1800 Eliz    ditto
28 Oct 1802 James     ditto
6 Dec 1787 John  ditto

3 Oct  1799 Jane d/o William & Eliz (sack) weaver
22 May 1803 Sophia     ditto

There were others in this latter family.  You cannot conclude anything about the above sharing the same occupation as over half the fathers were either breechesmakers or sack weavers. 

This fiche is a very dificult one to follow as it is split all over the place following the original books and your baptisms were across the boundaries.
