Barge name.
« on: Wednesday 21 February 18 10:09 GMT (UK) »

 Good morning, one and all, and thank you in advance for any assistance that you may be able to give.

 My maternal grandfathers line has several Boatmen in it, and one, my GGF, was, possibly  ;), born on the  barge that is named on his baptism record.

 It is the name of the barge that I am struggling to read.




 

 Steve.

It looks like the location rather than the name of the Barge.

Trups Bridge  :-\  What parish are the christenings

It is Foleshill , Warwickshire , but so far I've drawn a blank on the name.

Looking at the baptism for James in 1859 it looks like Tusses Bridge ( using the long s in the spelling.)

Edit : the bridge is on the Oxford Canal.

 I have not found a James?

 Yes, I can see that as "bridge", now.

 Is there a dot, for i, either last letter, or second last?

 The one that I posted is for Thomas Rogers, 1853.

 I have not looked for siblings, but it looks like James is one.  :)

 Thank you.
