Redroger et al,
I've managed to get to the CCRO this afternoon for a swift hour, and could find no trace of your Zebulum, not to say that he didn't exist or that his registration of birth and/or death doesn't still exist somewhere so far unlooked at...
However, after I'd copied down as many sightings of the AYRES family in Nonconformist registers, I had a quick look through the parish chest for Bottisham, and discovered under reference P13/15/28:
Order of filiation for William AYRES for a child of Ann MOTT 10-10-1828.
Now wasn't your Absolom known as "Mott" and wasn't a cottage your AYRES family lived in called MOTT's cottage? An interesting one that.
The register for the Bottisham Lode Baptist Chapel only has records between 1809 and 1836, and there were absolutely no AYRES entries at all. However, there's a recently transcribed Cambs Non-Conformist collection 2 (in fact centring on the Isle of Ely) and I had a good trawl through those - will post them after I've had something to eat,
Regards, keith

Redroger,
Right, it's been difficult getting back on our (shared) laptop, but here are all the AYRES/AYERS entries I found in those Nonconformist Registers. It may be that none of them pertain to your family, but at least by putting them on here, they can be looked at by anyone with an interest in the family in Cambs...
So, at Cambridge Castle Street Methodist (passed it on my way up to the CCRO today!):
A baptism on 09-12-1877 for Ernest Alfred AYRES son of Geo William and Louise of 16, Newmarket Rd., Cambridge, grocer.
At the Ely Wesleyan:
Baptism on 08-06-1847: William AYRES son of Ralph and Ann of Oxlode Downham. Born 30-04-1847
Then an amazing eight-fold baptism of the children of Matthew and Elizabeth AYRES of Dairy Houses, Littleport on 18-06-1849.
Sarah Ann born 26-06-1834
Matilda born 18-09-1835
Matthew born 01-12-1836
William born 15-08-1838
Joseph born 24-04-1841
James born 14-12-1841 (?)
Abraham born 24-09-1843
Elizabeth Ann born 05-10-1848
Might this have been some kind of family baptismal world record...!
Then on 18-02-1850: Baptism of Mary Ann (born 19-01-1850) d. of Matthew and Elizabeth Ayres
30-09-1862: Baptism of Ruth Ann, born 24-09-1858 ditto parents
22-10-1871: Baptism of Annie, born 20-12-1862. ditto parents
All these last at Ely Wesleyan. Will post Ely Primitive Methodists, and Wisbech Ely Place after a sip of wine...

Nearly done,
At Ely Primitive Methodists a baptism on 21-10-1856 of James AYRES son of (blank) and Mary of Hilgay (blank) born 11-08-1856 (At Brandon Creek and Feltwell).
At Wisbech Ely Place Baptist:
Baptism 31-08-1822 (blank) AYRES child of Mrs AYRES
Baptism Feb 1824: AYRES child aged 6 of Mr AYRES
Baptism 16-08-1824: AYRES child 3 months of Mr AYRES
Baptism: 25-04-1832: AYRES of Elm Street 4 years child of Mr Thos taylor
Not much info to go on there, all a bit shady, not even sure whether father Thos' surname or his occupation was mispelled as "taylor".
Finally, I had a look at parishes near Bottisham.
At Stow Cum Quy a baptism on 11-09-1864 for Ruth AYRES, d. of John and Mary (otp), the parents living at Bottisham Lode, lab adult
At Swaffham Bulbeck on 09-11-1828 a baptism of William AYRES s. of William and Ann of Bottisham Lode, lab
Hope there might be something there of interest, sorry no Zebulum, but as another character beginning with the letter Z - Zebedee - used to say, time for bed now...
regards, keith

Hi, Ally,
Sorry, I misread your post of yesterday evening as coming from Redroger, so I'm glad if anything I've turned up helps you with your AYRES family. Now, where's Redroger - though it is still quite early here in sunny Cambridge...
keith
N.B. Perhaps next time I'm at the CCRO I'll get a copy of that filiation order (never looked at one of those before!) and send it to you, as it concerns someone in your tree...

Redroger,
As a result of an exchange of PM's, it's more likely that Ally will be up at the CCRO before me, as it'll be quite a while before I get there again...
