Hi
Have been doing a bit more research and have noticed that our families rub shoulders. Have you researched any of Sarah Trickey family. Sarah married John Townsend, the witness a John trickey who was also a witness to My jane Trickey, sister Elizabeth, maybe Sarah was also their sister.
hope this message gets to you

There was nothing at all for a Thomas birth in the Prescott Chapel records. All seemed to be as per the IGI. However I have made a note of Fry deaths as well which are not on IGI if you would like them.
It might be worth your while to still get out the Spiceland (Quaker) records. There is nothing to say that your Thomas wasn't born into a quaker family and then changed to the Prescott chapel as an adult. (Leaves no stone unturned) However be prepared that in all likelihood there won't be a birth record. There were times where the minister wrote in the register that it hadn't been kept, and basically he couldn't remember! Incidentally I have photos of this chapel taken earlier this year.
I have no doubt our ancestors rubbed shoulders in past history. My gg grandfather James had a brother John that also married a Trickey, and 2 of their children's births are registered at Prescott. Like you I am trying to pinpoint her family.
