1861 birthplace of Stamford is Farcet, just south of Peterborough and five miles west of Whittlesey

But checking the baptism index on the Cambs FHS site at http://www.cfhs.org.uk/Search.html there's an Alice Dewberry baptised 1816 at Whittlesey, abode Ramsey, daughter of Sophis and S. Berridge*. Is this the Alice to whom you are referring? An indication of likely dates is always helpful. Your request doesn't make too much sense as Ramsey and Whittlesey are both parishes in their own right, Ramsey being in Hunts and Whittlesey 10 miles away in Cambs.

The same site has census indexes for Cambs for the years you're looking for

* There were Stanford Berridges in Whittlesey. I wonder!!!

You're right David, I thought there was something not quite tying in.  We need a little more information.

Iam sorry the request was lacking info, I only had Alice name and the place of abode, did not know of two Alice,
the info still helps as Alice name did have a B  as a middle initial, which I now know could be Berridge.
This is the Alice that I would like info on, I notice Stamford also has a middle initial B. Next time I will try to be more concise with a date.
Alice B Dewberry 1816.
Thanks Kovel

Hi David,
I went to the link you gave me and are really confused;
1816 Dewberry Alice B d of sophis & S Berridge yet when I enter Berridge you get: 1816 Alice Berridge d of Stanford & S. Dewberry.
Maybe their is not a Alice Dewberry 1816 only the one from the 1851 census. Hence why I thought their was only the one.

Alice was presumably the illegitimate daughter of Sophia Dewberry and Stanford Berridge. As the father is mentioned in the baptism entry Cambs FHS have been helpful and indexed it under Berridge as well.

There's a marriage on FreeBMD of Alice Dewberry in Dec 1839 in Huntingdon registration district (which includes Ramsey) which might be her. One of the other parties on the page is Thomas Payne and in 1841 there's Thomas and Alice Paine 25 and 20 living in Wood Walton. But they're only a few doors away from Mark and Ann Dewberry, so this Alice might be their daughter, rather than the Alice baptised in 1816. It would take the marriage cert to prove it. Mark and Ann also had a daughter Sophia aged 3 in 1841. Make of that what you will!

I note from one of your earlier threads that you were looking for the baptism of Sophia Dewberry in Wood Walton 1788-91. Might she be the mother of the 1816 Alice?
