Harbury Look Up - John Watson
« on: Saturday 25 June 11 20:12 BST (UK) »
I have a John Watson born abt 1806/7. In 1851 census his birth place is Flecknoe, but I can't find a suitable baptism in Wolfhampcote, which is the parish for Flecknoe.
On 1871 and 1881 censuses his birth place is given as Harbury. I would appreciate it if someone could check the Harbury Parish register for his baptism.

As luck would have it there are only 2 Watsons born in Harbury,unusual for such a common name.
Samuel Watson b.1803
John Watson b.1806
Parents John & Elizabeth.
In 1851 Elizabeth the mother is living with the family of John

Thankyou very much Jim1 for your quick reply.
Are there any indications as to where John and Elizabeth came from? Is there a marriage?
I must apologise, good answers in family history always raise more questions.

I can't find a suitable marriage,they may have married in a Parish not listed on IGI or they may not have married at all.

How good is the IGI in Warwickshire? I know that in Northamptonshire it is not of much use?
