Title: Baptism for Eliza Jemima Osborn Gillard/Jillard
Post by: deoxy on Wednesday 17 May 17 12:10 BST (UK)

Hello. I've been trying to find a baptism for Eliza Jemima Osborn Gillard/Jillard. According to the census she was born in about 1804 at Stonehouse, Devon and married James Guard in 1822 East Stonehouse, Devon. She had several children, the youngest was called Ann Grant Jillard Guard. She died in Salford, Lancashire.
Thanks.

According to Eliza's original marriage record which I have just found online, her name is Eliza Jemima Osborn Jillard, married with permission of her guardians, witnesses names Caroline Steerman and James Lowe.

As far as I can see, the only Stonehouse baptisms online for the relevant time period are in a non-conformist church.   Records for St. Georges, Stonehouse do not appear to be available online.

Thanks. I'll have to phone them to see if they do searches and copies of their records.
