Somerset / Re: Seeking help for BLACKMORE`S
« on: Friday 12 January 24 16:14 GMT (UK)  »
Stoke St Mary is nearer Taunton rather than Bridgwater . From FindMyPast I can see the following:

Joseph Blackmoor bapt 8 April 1804 at Stoke St Mary, son of Isaac and Ann

Isaac Blackmoore marries Ann Coombes at Stoke St Mary  on 12 April 1801, they also seem to have baptised a son, Thomas , at North Curry-on 24 Aug 1801.

There is a burial in North Curry for an Isaac Blackmore, Age 62 ( born 1775) on 15 Aug 1837.

The only baptism I can see which might correlate to this is Isaac Blackmore at Halse, son of Abram/Abraham, which according to Somerset Baptisms was 3 Jan 1777, but the Bishops' Transcripts say 15 Jan 1777.

There is a marriage between an Abraham Blackmore and Mary Small at Milverton in 1762.

Hope this is useful !

Best match I can find on FindMyPast:

'Thos Capwell son of John Capwell and his wife Hannah baptized 1 Feb 1755' at Polesworth.

Ann Brown daughter of Thomas and Mary Brown bapt. 27 March 1748, Bedworth.

I can not yet see a John Goodman being baptized anywhere nearby!

Clifton was a separate Registration District between 1837 and 1877.

You need to search under Parish Baptisms. Civil registration of births did not start until 1837.

I put Bath as the place of birth- with a 5 mile radius.
