I'm quite new to this & have found that I need to look up the births of a couple of people born before 1837. I tried the IDS site but was not able to find anything.
The births I wanted to check so that I could perhaps get the certificates are for a: (Dates are based on census info)
Charles Burleigh Circa 1824 in Glatton, Somerset
Caroline Thomas Cira 1823 in Chepstow, Momouth. I know that she died in 1904.
Charles & Caroline were married & I have all those details - but would love to know how I can obtain their birth certificates/GRO ref nos so that I can go back even further.
Is there anybody out there than can point me in the right direction. Many thanks SADIE ???

I have been chasing this couple and their ancestors for about five years.
The Burleighs are in Chepstow, in Horse Lane in the 1841 Census.
Charles is apprenticed out and renting with a neighbour!
Prior to that, a couple of the children are registered in Monmouth
I think a Methodist? christening.
Charles was born outside Monmouthshire; you have Glatton, Somerset.
The parents are John and Hester (Ester, Esther).
Shoemaking runs in the family. (And dressmaking for the women.)
He is not the John Burleigh born 1891 in Hindon, Wiltshire - James was a shoemaker, but that John was a baker.

Just seen your reply, thank you for getting in touch.
Are you related to Charles Burleigh, I have quite a bit of info on him including snipets from a book about Orcop, where he appears to be quite a character.
Who is the James you refer to.
I have details of Charles children & a few went to Tasmania, my link (hubby) ended up in London.
Would be great to hear from you.

Or Wiltshire?
I've changed my mind - James Burleigh (infamous receiver of bribes in 1774 election(State Trials by Howell)) was a shoemaker. Shoemaking definitely runs in the family.
If John Burleigh married at Bedminster is ever to be identified, then born 1791 at Hindon is the most likely match. But I would like another clue to confirm the connection.

There's a baptism on FreeReg for a Caroline Thomas at Chepstow 05/02/1826 daughter of James (trunnel maker) and Elizabeth.
