Roberts of Buckden
« on: Wednesday 12 August 15 11:12 BST (UK) »
Dear Rootschatters,

My ancestress, Sarah Roberts, says that she was born at Buckden in about 1786.  She married, in 1809 at St Neots, Robert Cook, and died in 1878 at Caxton.

I am trying to find out Sarah's parents.  Is anyone able to help?

Bye for now,

Buckden baptisms aren't online, but Hunts FHS has a CDrom, or you could use Huntingdon Archives research service to look for her baptism in Buckden.

Hello Jackie,
Unfortunately there were no Roberts witnesses at her wedding

Thank you Bedfordshire boy I will look into that.  Maybe I should ask if someone will go and look for me at the archives.

Not sure that we have anyone on this board who goes to Huntingdon. It might be simpler to use the Archives research service, cost £20 for 30 mins research, which should be ample to look up one baptism. Even cheaper at £11-50 would be to purchase the CD from Hunts FHS.

A John Roberts married Sarah Dixon in Buckden in 1783, but you still need to find her baptism

Thank you Margaret,  that's very interesting.  Although it isn't conclusive proof that John Roberts and Sarah Dixon are the parents of my Sarah, the names John, Sarah and Susannah are to be found amongst her children and so there might be a link/.
The marriage of John Roberts and Sarah Dixon in 1785 are consistent with them being possible parents of my Sarah who was born in c. 1785/6.
If you have any Roberts burials in Buckden - they might prove informative.
Are there any births for Robert as a surname?
Thank you once again Margaret.
Kind regards
