Prestbury, Glos Parish records - Bliss - COMPLETED
« on: Friday 05 September 08 12:53 BST (UK) »
Hi, is there anyone who has access to look up parish records for Prestbury, Glos?

I would like to find the baptism record, and therefore the parents, of Eliza Bliss, who according to various censuses was born in about 1813. Also, any siblings of Eliza who might also have been baptised there would be nice.

Thanks very much in advance of your help!

Darren,

How do you know about Prestbury?  Could find no suitable Eliza B there in the 1851 and the 1841 census gives no birthplace except for Y/N for "Born in County" and did not find her there anyway.

There were no Bliss christenings in Prestbury between 1724 and 1812 according to the LDS extracted entries from Prestbury Bishop's transcripts of the parish register

Regards

Chas

Hi Chas,

Eliza Bliss was already married by the time of the 1841 census, married to William Olive and living in Gloucester. I know her maiden name from her daughter's birth certificate, and I know her place of birth from the 1851 and 1861 census.

I had already checked the IGI and noted that she wasn't there up until 1812 where the records end, so strongly suspect that she was baptised shortly after that. So I was hoping that someone might have access to Prestbury's parish records after 1812.

Thanks
