Hello, haveing looked at your conversation, I believe we may have something in common. My Family line seems to conect, with your line. Samuel Wildman was my Great Gandfather, his Farther and Mother Thomas and Temperance, and Thomas's Farthr James all seem to be mentioned.
If we are related that would be great and I would very much like to chat.

Hi There, just found this thread. I think I may have some links with the Riseley/Ravensden Wildman's.
My Grandfather Horace Wildman was born in Radwell in 1899 to I believe a Thomas Wildman who was an agricultural labourer from Riseley or Bolnhurst.
My Uncle was researchin the family but sadly passed away before he was able to get back much further.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Many thanks,
Mark

Thomas is a bit of a mystery, as he never appears on a census with his parents, always his grandfather:
1871
24 High St, Bolnhurst
Thomas Wildman head marr 56 ag lab b Ravensden
Ann Wildman wife 53 b Bolnhurst
Charles Wildman son unmarr 23 ag lab b Bolnhurst
Benjamin Wildman son unmarr 21 ag lab b Bolnhurst
John Wildman son unmarr 18 ag lab b Bolnhurst
Thomas Wildman grandson 3 b Bolnhurst
1881 see transcript on www.familysearch.org
1891
High St, Bolnhurst
Thomas Wildman head widower 77 ag lab b Ravensden
Thomas Wildman grandson 23 ag lab b Bolnhurst
There's a birth on http://freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl of a Thomas Wildman in Bedford registration district in Sept quarter 1867. If you order the certificate from the GRO this will give you his parents, as his baptism doesn't show on the IGI

Grandfather Thomas Wildman was baptised at Ravensden on 22 Jan 1815, son of William & Sarah (per BVRI)
William Wildman married Sarah Houghton at Ravensden on 13 Sept 1808 (BVRI)

Hi Shirley, from the little I've managed to glean then that's the way my thought train is going.

Mark I can't help as I don't even live in the Uk and research that far back is impossible online, but John & David could probably find a link if there is one.

Sorry John, I do remember David living in France. I wasn't thinking when put post to Mark. Its very late over here & brain is frazzled.  We had established somewhere that James wasn't baptised in Riseley perhaps Ravensden or Radwell. The only way to link would be to find both baptisms of James and William is that right?

What's wrong with checking the IGI on www.familysearch.org, which is available online in England, France and Australia?
There's a William Wildman baptised in Ravensden on 12 June 1791, son of George and Ann, which might be him, but he seems on the young side to have married in 1808.
There was also an Ann Skinner Wildman, dau of the same couple, baptised in 1792, which may be a clue as to Ann, but I can't find a marriage for George and Ann.
However there are burials of
George 25 Jan 1793
Ann 2 Feb 1793
Anne Skinner 21 Feb 1793
William 23 Nov 1797
which may have been the entire family, but it would take the parish register transcript to confirm it. The transcript is available for purchase from either Beds FHS or BLARS. I think this William might be a red herring.
There's also a William Wildman age 62 buried at Ravensden on 8 Jun 1830, but I can't see a burial of Sarah, nor can I see her in a census. He appears to have been baptised in Ravensden on 29 May 1768, son of Edward & Mary. I wonder though if the 13 Sept 1808 marriage to Sarah Houghton may have been a second marriage for William, as there's a marriage in Ravensden on 25 May 1800 William Wildman/Ann Ravens and a burial of Ann Wildman on 27 May 1808. William and Ann baptised a number of children 15 Jun 1802-1 May 1808 in Ravensden. This would make William rather older than envisaged, and I suspect he was the William baptised 1768.
There were numerous Wildmen in Ravensden, so there's no reason that there should be a link with Riseley. Because he wasn't baptised in Riseley, despite being born there, doesn't mean he has to have been baptised elsewhere. He might not have been baptised at all. My understanding of the Riseley James Wildman was that he was possibly of non-conformist stock, which is why a baptism may not be found
In the 1803 Muster Roll there's only one mention of a Wildman in Ravensden - Edward who owned 1 cart, 2 horses and 1 driver. But there's a William Whiteman, tradesman, class 4 (unmarried men 50-55; married men over 30, married men 17-30 with more than 2 children under 10) which may be an error for Wildman. If it was really William Wildman he would have fitted in class 4 - married man over 30.
Virtually all of Beds baptisms and marriages pre 1812 have been extracted onto the IGI, so it is patently not the case that "research that far back is impossible online". Most of the above was done online. Of course information from the IGI should ideally be checked against the parish register, microfilm copies of which can be viewed at your nearest LDS Family History Centre, as the register will often include additional information
