Title: Baptism at Barwell of George GARNER abt 1784-1785
Post by: Westy11 on Wednesday 18 April 18 08:32 BST (UK)
George GARNER age was noted as born at Barwell:
* aged 66 in the 1851 census therefore a birth about 1785
* burial in 1852 aged 68 therefore a birth about 1784

I am hoping to find George's baptism at Barwell and hoping for some assistance.

Actually, after a lot of searching I found that there are several Garner baptisms in Barwell in the period, including a George on 15 July 1792, the son of John Garner and Elizabeth (nee Adcock).

https://www.findmypast.co.uk/transcript?id=GBPRS/LEICS/BAP/01105159 Archive: Record Office for Leicestershire, Leicester & Rutland, reference DE3367/3, Record set: Leicestershire Baptisms.

The marriage licence for the aforementioned couple is dated 15 Oct 1777, he was 30 and she was 27, both single, both residents of Burbage.

They also had a son, Robert (baptised 16 Nov 1783), a son, William (baptised 20 Nov 1785), son Richard and daughter Elizabeth (baptised together on 17 Nov 1788).

Hope this is helpful to you.
