Thanks Carol. Trying to think of the best way to go next. Maybe wills but a long shot I'd think. I do feel lucky though to have made it back to John.
Regards
Lindsay
Have you seen this entry on Family Search -

22 Sep 1653 Radley, Berkshire
John Cripps & Isabell Phelps.

I had to look it up but Radley appears to be only about 15 miles from Buckland, and was probably Isabel's home.

Jill

Radley PRs (transcribed by OFHS) contain no further details, unfortunately - just the date and names as above.  Names of fathers weren't entered in marriage records at that time.

Thanks again Alan.
I'll sit and think about the two. A pity that John is such a common name at that period. Maybe wills could help if they exist for the two Johns. Many thanks for your help.

Hi Lindsay,

I see you have mentioned Bampton. There is this baptism;

St.Mary the Virgin, Bampton.

19-4-1625 John Crips s/o Robert & Kathleen.

No signs of the marriage of Robert & Kathleen in Bampton transcripts.

Alan
Sorry Alan, I should have mentioned that I had a record from Bampton transcripts for a John Baptised, 27th March 1631. Does that appear in your copies I wonder? Also, if it does, is it possible to separate the correct John from the two possibles?
Regards
Lindsay

Thank you very much, Alan. This could well be my John, particularly as it is very close to his likely baptism.I had a feeling he might be a Bampton man and I'll carry on to see if I can locate the parents you mentioned (Robert & Kathleen). I am so appreciative of the help I've received via Rootschat and it has helped my research enormously. I'm in Australia so it has been challenging trying to locate registers etc. Thank you so much again and much success in your own research.

Thank you Jill. I had seen this entry and I think you're right; it looks a very likely match. Both Buckland and Bampton (the parish of later Cripps') are quite close. It's a pity that John has not a distinctive Christian name but I'll continue the search for his baptism. Thank you once again for your help.

Thanks Kim.
I feel that they may have married outside of Buckland; at least I hope so as it would seem that the earlier registers for Buckland may not exist for John's baptism and marriage. I wonder whether Phillip, the father of Phillip, could be a brother of my John?
Thanks again,
Lindsay

Hello
After some very useful help I received from members on Rootschat earlier this year, I've decided to ask for some more help to try and find the marriage and baptism of John Cripps (late of Buckland, Berks). I believe he married Isabella ... around 1650. They had six children (all I've found so far) in Buckland and John died there in the 1680's. Isabella died in 1715 and mentions a few of the children as well as a grandson in her will. I'd also love to locate John's baptism C1630. I would be so grateful to receive any information as I'm not sure where to go from here. I did locate a will for Phillip Cripps (1726) in Buckland but don't know his relationship yet. Would anyone have any idea where the name Isabella may have derived?
Thanks
Lindsay

Debbie,
you are my saviour. My dad is 92 and I am so lucky to have this new information to correct what he has long believed to be so. I am very thankful to people such as yourself who go to the trouble of helping those who have come to a dead end or whose own research was not correct. I might never have been able to solve the origins of my Cripps family had it not been for your help. I would love to stay in touch and update you when I come across more. We live in Australia so it hasn't been easy doing the research, especially before the days of the Internet. Now, where are all my notes?  ::)
Have a Happy New Year Debbie (Oh, and also to Nigel if he reads this)

Kind Regards
Lindsay

Hello Debbie.
Well, I'm very confused at the moment. I see your point and I'll need to go back over everything I have and check it out again. What you say seems to add up and I feel numb at the moment  :-\
I am very thankful for your help and now I'm going to drag out all my old records and try to make them fit, but your revelations have certainly got me questioning what I've always assumed. I'm so pleased I posted on here otherwise I'd be none the wiser. Thanks Debbie.

Regards
Lindsay
