I am trying to find Thomas Parkinsons parents, Thomas was born around 1747 in Middleton Tyas I think, he married a Margaret Todd. Not sure if Margaret Todd was born in Melsonby nr Richmond or if they were married there.

Hi there
Welcome to Rootschat
Did find a Thomas Parkinson who married a Margaret Todd
on 27th February 1777 at Melsonby Yorkshire which is about
2.5 miles from Middleton Tyas.
They had a few children I found
Dinah baptised 8th March 1778 at Middleton Tyas
William 5th October 1779 " "
Rachel 20th January 1788
George 20th February 1791
Isabel 17th November 1797
All the children baptised at Middleton Tyas. There are a few gaps
in the childrens birth dates so could mean the child inbetween died.
Or was not registered etc.
Think this is Thomas but only a guess
South Cowton, is 2.6 miles from Richmond
2.9 miles from Middleton Tyas
2.2. miles from Melonsby
not far to walk in those days.
Thomas Parkinson christened 14th April 1748 at South Cowton
parents are Thomas and Anne
