Flintshire Lookup Requests / David Davis Pickhill or Shordley
« on: Wednesday 28 November 12 05:33 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
Just wanted to find out if anyone can help me with place names in Wales. I am trying to marry up records I have found for David Davis. I have his Australian convict records that shows he was from Flint. The record from the Bodmin Jail records, (where he was held prior to transportation) shows he is from Shordley (at least I think that is what is says) and now I have found a baptism record showing that he is the son of Mary Davis of Pickhill. There is no father listed and a notation that looks like BAS. Can anyone tell me if this means he was born out of wedlock and where Shorley and Pickhill where.
Thanks
