Lookup - Stockport
« on: Friday 18 April 08 20:08 BST (UK) »

Is anyone able to do a look up for me at St Peter's in Stockport please?

I'm looking for the baptism of Mark MEREDITH in abt 1798.  I suspect that I've found his parents buried there (does anyone have the MIs?) and wondered if he was baptised there as he's a complete mystery man at the moment.

MANY thanks

Hi Claire,

St Peter’s Church was founded 1765 as a chapel to St. Mary’s and became a parish church in 1838.
The baptism records held at Stockport library and also Cheshire Record Office are for 1878-1977.


Regards,
Pat.

So aren't there any records there for the period Mark was born in?

No, sorry there are only the dates I've given you,
Not sure but I think that earlier baptisms would have been at St Mary's Church, Stockport which was the main one at that time.
I have looked at St Mary's for your Mark Meredith and haven't spotted him yet but the years up to about 1806 are really difficult to read so I could have missed him and it is possible that he was baptised at another church
I do keep him in mind when I'm going through the various registers.

I can imagine Claire.
Two of mine are driving me crazy. Perhaps we'll both get lucky soon

This may throw you completely off track but there is a Rev Meredith listed at St Peters in 1845 - no first name or initial given in Stockport Genealogical database!

There is also a Martha Meredith widow listed as having a will dated 1846 on the cheshire county web site, citing Bredbury as the town of death.

Just a twist - but they may be worth a look.  Meredith is not too common a name for the area.
