I am looking for the Christening record of William James Henshall born in Congleton, Cheshire. His birth was registered in April May June 1856 Ancestry.com - England & Wales, Free Birth, Marriage, Death Index:
I think his mother Emma Henshall may have been unmarried at the time of his birth.
I would appreciate it if some one could look up the Christening record of William James Henshall and find out, if indeed, his mother was unmarried or if she was married what her husbands name was. In the 1861 British Census William (6 years old)and his mother Emma are living in the St. Stephan Eccesiastical Parish.
I live in the US and so can't look this up myself.
Thank you for any help given.

The best way to do this is to order his birth certificate from following site:
www.gro.gov.uk
You will need to supply the Year, Quarter (June in your case) District, Volume and Page.
This will show his mother and hopefully father, if she was married, and costs 7 UKPounds.
Best of luck

Thank you very much for the information about ordering a birth certificate. I really didn't want to spend $15.00 or more to find out the information. I will just wait until I can travel to the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Thank you again,
Alane

The baptism is on the FamilysearchLabs pilot site:
http://search.labs.familysearch.org/
at Buglawton (a district of Congleton) on 8 June 1856 as son of William (weaver) and Emma.

Hi
Also on the same site there's a marriage between
William Henshall age 29(father William) and Emma Dale age 21(father Charles) on29th January 1856 in Buglawton. FHL film number 2149024
Try the search without the year - it didn't seem to work when I input a year.Also just Cheshire - not Buglawton.
The same marriage is on 'Cheshire BMD'.
Hope this helps
