Title: Elizabeth Scadding
Post by: lemming23 on Friday 27 May 16 16:09 BST (UK)

Hi,
I am looking for the parentage of an Elizabeth Scadding who married Isaac Flay 1814 Culmstock.  She may/may not have been baptised in Culmstock sometime in the 1790s. Can anyone help?
Thank you,
Lemming

Family Search has this baptism:

Culmstock, Devon
father - Thomas Scadding
mother - Joan

Any good?

Hi STG,
Thanks for looking!
She had a son 1835 so think she must have been born in the 1790s, rather than the 1780s. The 1841 census suggests a baptism date of 1795 but I can't see any likely baptisms, apart from a birth at Hemyock for a Betty Scadding born to a William and Sarah in 1795 or a baptism in 1792 to Charles and Hannah Scadding, again in Hemyock.
