Hello Deb, or D?
I went to the BRO today, I had time to do the Census 1841 but not the parish birth today, but will do that first next time, hope thats okay.

I searched all of Sonning Town but couldn't find him!
The reference for Sonning includes other places - Earley, and Woodley /Sandford.
Here is the BRO ref.
Sonning - Earley,  HO107/13/7 film 2.
              - Sonning Town HO107/28/7 film 8
              - Woodley & Sandford  HO107/28/8-9 film 8.

I searched only Sonning Town, it may be worth checking in the Woodley one as that is very near Sonning, where was he in 1851?
I checked Sonning Town folios 1-16 (but 15-16 are blank)
No index for the 1841, sorry.
Newbie.
Have def written down your parish birth look up in my book for next time.

Hi D
Went to Bro and checked for the 1841, 1st problem, Shiplake is in Oxon, not Berks,luckily they had an out of county list, checked that and they had Shiplake!
Checked all of Shiplake, HO 107/874/8 (BRO ref) sorry no sign of your William Prior.

Hi Debpat

Just a little snippit - which you may or may not have - I noticed when I checked the 1851 census for this family that William has a daughter Caroline aged 16 born in Greys OXF. and realised that probably meant Rotherfield Greys so checked the register transcripts and found baptism 14th September 14th 1834 Caroline d/o William & Frances Caroline Prior - baker of Witheridge Hill.  I also wondered if he might still be there in 1841 (no other children baptised there that I could see)

Just a thought
