Is anyone able to look up a baptism at HALS for me?
I have a William Sear that I have been pursueing via the censuses, but he cannot be found in the 1841/51 census. The Williams that are there are not the correct ones. See
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,231749.0.html
It has been suggested that the way forward on this may be to look up the baptism. The details I have are as follows:
William Sear b c1831 Hemel Hempstead, Herts (the 1861-1881 all agree with this year of birth and birthplace. The 1901 census shows his birth year as c 1828 St Albans, Herts, but William is in a Workhouse then, which may explain the discrepancy)
William married 25.11.1856 St Bartholomew, London, and his father is listed as Richard Sear, occupation Baker.
So if a baptism for William Sear b c 1828-1831 Hemel Hempstead, with a father Richard Sear, a baker could be found it would just be wonderful 
I hope this isn't too confused. Beverley

I've had a chance to look into the family of Richard Sears and Maria Rolph of Leverstock Green, Herts. Their son William ch 28.10.1822 Leverstock Green, married a Margaret and they are the couple from the 1851 census. Margaret's birthplace is Chatham, Kent. This rules them out as my William and Margaret, apart from the birth year for William being wrong, my Margaret was born in Co Kerry, Ireland (info from 1861 & 1871 census)
This still leaves me with William Sear(s) b c1830 Hemel Hempstead,( married Margaret Sweeney 25.11.1856) father Richard Sears, occupation Baker.
He cannot be found on the 1841 or 1851 census and the only Richard Sear turns out to be the wrong one.
I really don't know what my next move should be and am open to any suggestions.
