Thomas Gwillim born 1812 Guilsfield Montgomeryshire
« on: Sunday 21 July 13 20:31 BST (UK) »
Hello
Could anyone advise me which route to take to find details of baptisms and marriages in Guilsfield please?
My 2 x grt grandfather Thomas Gwillim was born 13.05.1812 and baptised 24.05.1812 Guilsfield, Montgomeryshire.
Family Search gives me many Gwillim's born in Guilsfield, unfortunately no parents are listed, so have been  unable to match Thomas with his siblings.
Thomas married Jane (surname not known), presumably in Guilsfield.
Thomas and Jane had seven children and the only clue to the area is a son named David Gwillim baptised 23.02.1851, Poole, Guilsfield, St Aelhalarm, Montgomeryshire.
Recently I was very lucky to find the graves of Thomas and Jane in Overleigh Cemetery, Chester.
Any help would be most appreciated.
