Hello all,
Can anyone help with a baptism for Charlotte Jones? ON 1851 Census she gives her birthplace as Whitney-on-Wye,--but there is no baptism there. From her given age in 1851, she was b 1789. I'm assuming the family moved soon after her birth, and thus she was baptised elsewhere--if at all!
Charlotte Jones married Edward Yapp on 28 Dec. 1816, at Burford, Shropshire (close to Tenbury Wells, Worc,) First known child (of 5) was George Yapp, b 1820 at Burford, --last known Eliza Yapp b 1832 also at Burford. Charlotte die June 1870, age 81, at Knighton-on-Teme, Worc.
If any of you are researching Jones's---and no easy task, that--perhaps you may have stumbled on Charlotte's baptism somewhere.
Maybe i'll get lucky! Robbie
