I am trying to trace a relative ---William Bage, born c1808 in Killamarsh Derbyshire. (He likely had a brother Mark Bage also born in Killamarsh, about 1798) Was there a church in Killamarsh that the christenings would have been registered in? Does anyone have info on Bage's in Killamarsh? I have also left a message on the Chesterfield and Districty Family history board but no luck so far so am reaching out to the Rootschat group!
I have hit a dead end in linking this ancestor to other Bage families in Rotherham or Derbyshire unless someone can help point me towards a resource --likely a local parish record??
According to Phillemores atlas of parish registers there are surviving ones for Killamarsh from 1638, however they are only included in the IGI (Family Search) 1820-1868 for baptisms and 1820-1854 for marriages and I can't find at the moment that they have been published in anyway, the originals will be at Matlock Records Office, I think you may have to get someone to pay a visit for you
