Stony Stratford .... Sheppard
« on: Tuesday 24 November 15 08:06 GMT (UK) »
I would be grateful if anyone could help me with birth of Henry and William Sheppard born between 1802 and 1810.  Possibly at Stony Stratford or thereabouts.  They are of a Beachampton family but not born there apparently

Thanks in anticipation

Sue,
You don't say who the parents are/should be but according to FamilySearch there is a baptism at Stony Stratford for a William:
10 Aug 1806 - parents John Sheppard and Hannah.
But there also appear to be siblings of William, but not a Henry:
James 1798, Mary 1801, Sarah 1802, Elizabeth 1803, Anne/Catharine 1808, John 1813 and Jane 1815.

Hi Peter
Thank you for doing that ! Sorry didn't say parents were John and Mary. So this looks like another family who i came across in another context. My lot are from Beachampton but Wm was reckoned to have been born at Deansanger and Henry at Stony Stratford. According to census info anyway. Their other siblings were born at Beachampton.

Anyway another William Sheppard sort of clears up an outstanding matter i had. There was a court case in 1830 involving William son of John and I wondered if he was mine. But I think it is the one you have found instead. So thank you for your help which has been useful. If you come across my Wm anytime I would be very grateful.

Regards

I maybe wrong, but is Deanshanger in Northants.

If you're sure your Sheppards are from Bucks, ask BucksFHS for a baptism search from their baptism, marriage & burial databases. 
Generally, you get more information from them, rather than familysearch, at a very small cost.
