Morning, Please could someone help with a bap and parents for William Ridley born 1777/8.
1841 William Ridley, 63, Ag Lab
Mary " 65, Wife
Robert " 29
William " 13
Isabella " 26 (Had a problem remembering her age!!!)
All born NBL.
1851 William Ridley, 73 Pauper ex Ag Lab born
Warden Mary " 75, born Kirkwhelpington
Isabela " Dau 48, " "
Robert " Son 34, St Johnley (St John Lee?)
Married Mary Codling 1802 Kirkwhelpington.
Bap 1802 Joseph at Kirkwhelpington
Bap 1806 Elizabeth at "
Bap 1807 Mary "
All three bap give Willem "
of Heydon" and Mary of this parish.
BT's for Warden and Heydon Bridge are l missing crucial years and I can't find him there.
There is a Joseph and Elizabeth Ridley bap children in Heydon Bridge in the right time.
Mathew 1773
Elizabeth 1776
Joseph 1781
I think the chances are reasonably good that this could be his parents as William and Mary name their children quiet strictly in a naming pattern. eg
Joseph 1802 - his father
?
Isabel 1803 - her mother
Elizabeth 1805 - his mother
?
Mary 1807 - mother
Codling 1809 - mothers maiden name
Mark 1811 - mothers father
William 1813 - father
Mary 1815
Mathew 1815
Ann 1818
Robert 1819
Jane 1820
John 1821 - well used family name
Thanks in advance.
Catherine
