Children of John Waspe & Charlotte - Little Blakenham
« on: Friday 22 January 16 21:54 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
Does anyone have access to the parish registers of Little Blakenham? I am trying to trace the children of John Waspe & Charlotte from about 1821 to 1834 (or maybe later). I believe there were a number of children including at least two sets of twins. They also named some of their children after previously deceased siblings so very confusing!
I would like to know the dates of baptisms and burials (when shortly after death). Caroline 1834 (the second Caroline!) was my 3xGt Grandmother. I believe she was the last of John & Charlotte's children. Charlotte is alone with some of the children by the time of the 1841 census so I think John may have died (or run off!) by then.
Any information would be very welcome.
Thanks

Thank you,
The burial of John Waspe in 1835 could explain why my 3xgt grandmother born 1834 was the last child! Very tragic family but in some ways I am glad that John didn't leave Charlotte for someone else.
Sadly, Charlotte had 10 children and outlived 7 of them.
