Dead End: Hubbard & Boldry/Boldrey
« on: Sunday 08 November 09 11:04 UTC (UK) »

Hi All,

Hoping for a lead on my GGGG grandparents.

For some time, I knew that they were Charles Hubbard, gardener (later farmer) and his wife, Susannah. They had Sarah c1816, Charles c1817, Lydia c1821 (baptised 1829), William c1822, Mary Ann c1823. Sarah was married by 1841 and had died before 1851, so I only have her as born Norfolk, the others were listed in census returns as born in Poringland.

After a lot of digging, I finally found one elder child baptised in 1815 in Langley St Michael, Norfolk. She was listed as daughter of Charles Hubbard, Gardener and Susan Hubbard, née Boldrey.

This confirmed that, though Charles and Susannah were born and lived in Norfolk, they were married at st Leonard, Shoreditch, London on 9th Jun 1814. Ancestry has the scan of the marriage register.

They were married by Banns at their own consent. Charles made his mark, Susannah signed her own name. Their witnesses were Rhoda Stolliday and George Limming.

I can't track down Rhoda (and the later Rhoda Hubbard in censuses doesn't seem to be her), but Stolliday seems to be a Norfolk name.

I have also found an archives reference to a Charles Hubbard taking his Catachism between 1790 & 1799, which would tie in with his age (born c1788). This might also explain why I'm struggling so much to find baptism records for this couple & most of their children.

Would really appreciate anyone helping out with records or info on this family

Are you saying that you have searched the Carleton St Peter,  Shotesham St Mary and Shotesham All Saints parish registers for these baptisms without success?

I've explored all online resources I can think of. I don't have local access to Norfolk record offices

Mmm, looks as though the Carleton St Peter and Shotesham All Saints have been covered by Freereg, but the baptisms are definitely not there, so that would make Shotesham St Mary favourite for Susannah.

Strange about Carleton St Peter, there are Hubbards, but the earliest baptism seems to be 1798 and they are from the PRs rather than ATs, I think I'd want to double check just to be sure.

Do you have an LDS family history centre near you? Looks like all three are available on film to order.

I believe so, though not easy to arrange with long working hours. I was hoping someone might know of an obscure site with transcriptions.
