Can anybody help with the birth record of William Allcroft b.c.1817 in Sheffield. His father was John Allcroft mother Elizabeth nee Taylor, I think,who was born in Darton area( Maplewell, High Hoyland or Royston) c.1797.A John Allcroft married Elizabeth Taylor in St Peter& St. Paul's Catherdal in 1816. I have no b.record of John but think it likely he came from S. Yorks or N Nottingham Thank you very much in advance Chris

Thanks Catswiskers, The only record of Allcroft That I know of in Darton is in 1823 a baptism of John son of John & Elizabeth.They wern,t married there but Eliz. gives it as her birth place on 1861 census. There was a mariage in Sheffield Cathedral in 1816 between Eliz. Taylor & John Allcroft So think that maybe them, but by 1830 the family had moved to London. Thanks Chris
