Uppingham & Ridlington PR's help please.

   Hi Guys....

  I am asking for help looking for the Robarts family. There is a baptism on IGI for a Walter Roberts 1715 that is extracted not submitted for Ridlington. It has his parents as Walter Roberts & Catherine .

 The name mixes between Robert & Robarts.
 His son has children in Uppingham 1771 - 1789 .

 I know it is a big ask but does anyone have access to the parish records for the two places ?

  If so I will give you all the details I have on the family in full.

               Cheers

Hi Tazzie,
Crowboy here.  I have Uppingham fiche so give me a couple of days and I will search out Robards/Roberts for you.

   Hi Crowboy.....

  That would be great  .

 Would you need names and dates that I have ?

                   Tazzie

Hi Tazzie,

Sorry for the delay.  Not having a great deal of luck finding Roberts/Robards/Robarts especially in the 1715 window.
 
All ex Uppingham parish fiche records:

Katherine Roberts(entry) Robarts (signature) married Joseph Dean both OTP on 31 October 1774. Banns 2,9,16 October.  witness William Robarts.

Mary daughter of John Robarts baptised 2? (poss 23) February 1713.

Have located children of Walter Roberts  you mention in Uppingham in 1770-1778. Have not searched post 1778 yet.

Walter son of Walter Roberts the younger  baptised 20 December 1772.

Christopher son of Walter and Elizabeth Roberts baptised 10 February 1775.

William son of Walter and Elizabeth Roberts baptised 14 July 1777.

All the children of Walter and Elizabeth appear to be well recorded on IGI.

Elizabeth daughter of Thomas Roberts of Lidington and Sarah his wife baptised 19 November 1746.

As per you offer you might need to give me a heads up with a few details of the individuals you wish to pinpoint.

Regards

  Hi Crowboy....

  Thanks for those look ups. Yep Walter jnb @ 1744  and Elizabeths children seem to be ok as per IGI.  She was Elizabeth Parker married @1769 in Rushton according to member submitted details.His father Walter b @1715  Ridlington (extracted).

 What I was hoping was to find a marriage for a Walter Robarts to a Catherine ?? in Uppingham...but as you say not much luck before 1715 I would think that puts them in the Ridlington area then.

  Do you know where Lidington is I cannot find it on my map?

  This may give me another area to search in .

  I will add all of these into my index and show my friend. I will let her decide if she wants to go futher for now.


                   Thank you for all the time...(I need glasses or an eyetest after reading our Bucks PR'S.

No problems Tazzie

The following website has a useful map of Rutland which records Lidington/Lydington as south of Uppingham.

   AH HA... Lyddington   should have guessed! Lyddington Bede house what is left of the palace of the bishops of Lincoln...!

  It is alot closer to the Northants boarders than I was looking and we now spell it differently.


  Many thanks again.

Tazzie,

I have the Ridlington parish records. Do you still need  a lookup there?
