John Jones born in Tenbury - 1787-6
« on: Tuesday 20 October 09 18:15 UTC (UK) »
My ggg grandfather, John Jones, according to the 1851 census, gave his birth place as Tenbury, Shropshire. His age in 1851 was 64 years. This makes his birth date about 1787/6.
I've had no luck finding birth/christening details on IGI.
Can anyone find a birth record on microfilm in the Tenbury parish registers at Worcester History Centre?

Thanks for your suggestion but I don't think this is the right one. I have a marriage certificate for John Jones when, conveniently for me, he remarried later in life in 1843 - his father is stated also as a John Jones (!) - dealer in cattle. At the time of his remarriage he was living in Middlesex.

Thanks again for this. However, I still don't know for sure as I don't have any additional information e.g. mothers name etc. John Jones is such a common name!
