Yorkshire (North Riding) Lookup Requests / Dalton North Riding Catholic records
« on: Sunday 17 December 23 18:07 GMT (UK)  »
My family, surname Barwick, were from Dalton, near Gayles in Yorkshire North Riding.
I can’t seem to find the Catholic christening records for this area for the time period 1690 to 1730.
They were definitely catholic, as we have family documents from that time period that state this.
Would the records be held in North Riding somewhere?

Dalton is in Yorkshire North Riding area.

Thanks for the info, I’ve searched most genealogy sites for his Christening record and nothing has come up.

Yorkshire (North Riding) / Catholic Church in Dalton early 1700s
« on: Wednesday 13 December 23 13:58 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me?
One of my ancestors, Robert Barwick, was born in Dalton, Yorkshire. He was a farmer for 40yrs and was a Catholic. I know this info from some old deeds my mother has that have been passed down the family.
My issue is I’ve not been able to find his Christening record. Is there anywhere I can find the Catholic records for Dalton parish for the early 1700s. I think he must have been born between 1700-1702. Many thanks

Hi, thank you for the info. I have done a bit of research into his history as a soldier (see attached), but didn’t quite get as far as his time in Greece, so thank you.
I’m still trying to establish if this is the actual John Gilbert I am looking for. Maria Gilbert was my 5th Great Grandmother, and finding concrete evidence of her birth and parents is proving to be difficult.

Have been looking into this again…
I’m struggling to find a marriage between John Gilbert and Elizabeth. There’s nothing in Sussex (which is where they baptised their daughter in 1816 in Chichester whilst he was stationed at the barracks there).

The muster rolls for February 1814 and September 1816 (online on Ancestry) list only one John Gilbert in 14th Foot: he was in 3rd Battalion initially and had transferred to 2nd Battalion by September 1816.
He would actually have been transferred to the 2nd battalion prior to 17 Feb 1816 because on that date the 3rd battalion was disbanded. See page 78 Cannon, Richard (1845). Historical Record of the Fourteenth, or, the Buckinghamshire Regiment of Foot. London: Parker, Furnivall, and Parker.

Thank you

Following this with interest.

The only John Gilbert baptised in Wantage, Berkshire in 1793 (+/-5 years) is this one:

John Gilbert, born 8 Feb 1791, baptised 25 Apr 1791 in Wantage, Berkshire, to Richard & Sarah Gilbert.

Queenie  :)

I was just looking at the same record :) now if I can find a marriage between him and Elizabeth (mother of his daughter Maria Gilbert born 1816 Chichester)..

So do you think this could definitely be the soldier I am looking for?

It's certainly very likely. The muster rolls for February 1814 and September 1816 (online on Ancestry) list only one John Gilbert in 14th Foot: he was in 3rd Battalion initially and had transferred to 2nd Battalion by September 1816.

Ok thank you for your help  :)
