Hi Rootchatters
There is a referenence on the Nat Archives site for a Caleb Kinsman a tailor son of Caleb an Inn Keeper
National Archives
B274/23 1806
[Lease and release - release missing]
1. Caleb Kinsman, p. Tavistock, tailor, son of Caleb Kinsman, innkeeper, dec'd.
2. Edward Bray, p. Tavistock, esq.
(Property as in B274/17-18)
According to Stoates Transcriptions of Tavistock
Caleb Kinsman Snr was baptised
Kinsman, Caleb son of John, 21 Nov 1723 bapt Tavistock
And buried
Kinsman, Mr. Caleb, 11 Jul 1772 burial Tavistock
Between 1761 -1769 Caleb Kinsman Snr had six children baptised and three buried in Tavistock, but there is no mention of a son Caleb.
There is only one entry for a baptism for Caleb Kinsman;
Kinsman, Caleb son of John & Elizabeth, 1 Dec 1761
The previous entry on Stoates before Caleb’s baptism is for a Benjamin Davis son of John and Elizabeth.
I have read that there are some error’s on Stoates transcriptions.
My question is can anyone please check the original record to check either if Caleb was the son of John and Elizabeth or if there was a Caleb Kinsman baptised circa 1760? I have tried the OPC clerk for Tavistock who does not have the original film for this period.
I would be very grateful for any help or ideas.
