Hi, I'm trying to find a baptism for a Mary Edwards born c. 1793. She marries a Thomas Alcock in 1820 at St. James' Audley and the censuses on which she appears are consistent that her birthplace is Talke (O'th Hill). I've looked on the IGI and there is a baptism for a John Edwards in Talke on 22 May 1791. Unfortunately the batch number for the Talke entry only covers the years 1786-1791, this is earlier than Mary's birth  John's parents are given as Sherratt and Hannah Edwards. The interesting thing about this, is that Thomas and Mary Alcock have a son amongst their children called Thomas Sherratt Alcock. Can anyone confirm that Mary Edwards is the daughter of Sherratt and Hannah Edwards please, or am I just clutching at straws in thinking that the Sherratt link is correct  Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks, Ju
