Geoff, The Thomas Ringrose Tagg that is the focus of my research was christened in Gedney, Lincolnshire on 17 Oct, 1814, birth date of 8 Oct, 1814 in Gedney. Parents were John Tagg and Susannah Ringrose. They married at St Mary, Long Sutton, Lincolnshire on 20 July, 1813.
I have found a John Tagg b 22 Feb, 1765 in Spalding, Linoclnshire but that seems a tad old for him to be the one that married Susannah Ringrose in 1813. His parents were listed as being John Tagg and Elizabeth. ( England Births and Christenings, 1538 - 1975 Vol 3 & Vol 4).
Susannah Ringrose was b in Long Sutton, Lincolnshire on 15 or 25 April, 1790.
Both dates come from the above cited record index.
There is a possible connection with East Yorkshire but I have yet to prove it because of the distance btw Linconchire and Yorkshire and the dates involved.
The above named Thomas Ringrose Tagg married Mary Coultas in Grantham, Lincolnshire on28 March, 1837. Supposedly her Coultas grandparents resided in the Thwing area of Yorkshire in the 1750 t0 1850 time frame. Robert Coultas b 1752 & d 1820; Jane Vickerman b 1755 and d 1840. I just cannot resolve in my mind how their supposed son, James Coultas was b 17 Aug, 1787 in Grantham could be born there yet they supposedly lived in Yorkshire.
