Baxter in Empingham

[jakflip]

Please help a Newby. Looking for info on Baxters in Empingham, Rutland.

As far back as William`s marriage to Margaret Baines in 1801. Looking for his parentage.

May have missed some earlier relatives so any info welcome.

Thanks,  Chris.

Family search has William marrying Margaret Collins 17 Nov 1801.

Apologies if this is a different William Baxter.

From a freeby disc on a magazine containing Empingham marriages -

17 Nov 1801, William Baxter, OTP, Bac - Margaret Collin(s) OTP, by Banns

22 Aug 1802, William Baxter, of Easton - Sarah Bains, OTP, by Banns

Perhaps somewhere along the line the two brides have been mixed up?

The disc also contains Baptisms and Burials, the earliest occurrence of the Baxter surname being 1802 so it doeasn't look like William who married Margaret originated in Empingham -
