Thank you very much.  John was my ancestor.  I found Thomas's death age 56 on Bath BMD so he would have been born about 1789 meaning a marriage should be about 1810.  Martha died in 1843 so they won't be on any later census.  Both buried South Stoke.

Thanks  I have only just seen this reply what an amazing find.  Thomas Wilton was parish clerk of North Stoke so I have found a few Wilton records on free reg in North Stoke but this marriage was new.

Thanks for your quick reply.  My great grandmother was Emma Baines born about 1844 in Leicester, daughter of Thomas Baines.  She was orphaned young, Thomas died in 1847 and she went to live with her uncle and aunt Charles and Sarah Baines in Hallatron.  The family are on all census from 1851 to 1901.  Charles gives his birth as about 1822 Hallatron.  Ideally I would like to know who his parents were as that would get me back another generation.  I think Thomas was born about 1811.  Any other information about this family would be welcome. 

Thankyou very much to you both for taking the trouble to do lookups. It is much appreciated.  Mary Ann Hill was my direct ancestor and Eleanor Easter  Kemp was her mother.   I have found quite a lot of the baptisms on free reg or the IGI.

I am still looking for a baptism for Everard Hill.

I wonder if someone could try to find a marriage between Thomas Baines and Mary Ann Hill or Slater about 1835 and also one between Eleanor Easter Kemp or Hill (widow) and Phillip Slater between 1823 and 1851.   Mary Ann Hill daughter of Eleanor Easter was  baptised at Ebenezer chapel Uppingham so they may be chapel marriages.  Thankyou.
