Many of mine upgraded.  They were farm labourers but on marriage stated they were yeoman or farmers.  I suppose it was to impress their new fathers-in-law!!

Makes sense :) Thanks. Going to run with Elizabeth and see what else I can find.

Could be.. I was looking at a John Gostridge Stout and cannot (yet) find any links to any Gostridges in the family. None of the other kids had a middle name and John went by Gostridge never stout which made me think of the adoption/foster route.

I can only see a transcription but Lancs opc shows him as John  Gorstidge Stout (not Gostridge)

Don't know about England, but this way of naming the parents is very common in Irish RC baptism registers. All it means is that the child's surname, e.g. your Elizabeth Wharton, is the father's surname and the surname after the mother's first name is her maiden name. Saved them writing the father's surname twice I guess.

Yes, I thought that at first but as others have shown, that isn’t the case in the other baptisms.

I wonder if he is in other records?

Spelling mistake ;D he according to someone's tree on Ancestry moved to New Zealand and called himself John Gorstidge if it's the same guy.

Hi

https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageviewer/collections/2575/images/4426104_00048?treeid=81209673&personid=372017062244&hintid=&queryId=749228b6e1917f99e8206de8356c9b33&usePUB=true&_phsrc=Zpx4024&_phstart=successSource&usePUBJs=true&pId=15324465

Unsure if you guys can see with the link. It will not let me post a picture.

Deffo baptisms. Why were the baptised with a different last name to the parents?

Thanks

Hi

I'm looking at Baptisms in St Peters, Liverpool in the year 1829.

Theres an Elizabeth Warton - Parents Isaac & Elizabeth Freeman
John Barlow - Parents John & Mary Clare
John Davies - Parents John & Margaret Brereton
Thomas Blakey - Parents John & Mary Vernon


And many others with different last names to the parents on the same page. I've never seen this before.

I wouldn't have thought so many of these are middle names. Were these children adopted or fostered or where the named 'parents' guardians or even god parents.

Looking forward to hearing some insight.

Thanks

Beverley

Hello,

I'm back with more questions:

I've found some other kids of an Edward Tatlock of Dale Street,Liverpool.

Peggy born 1766
John born 1768
Thomas born 1773
Henry born 1776 died 1777 I think
and then my Susannah born 1778

No mother is listed on any.

I'm now being linked to an Elizabeth Fairclough on Ancestry (married Edward 1760) but on the marriage bonds and allegations he is down as a Yeoman whereas on all the baptism records he is Labourer.

Could this be my Edward? Was it usual to downgrade occupation status in those times?

Unsure if means anything but this Edward has signed his name on the paperwork but none of my confirmed Tatlocks could write as they all made their mark (x) on their paperworks.

Thanks

Beverley

Maybe she meant Gothic House....Are you from Birmingham, the accent might have something to do with it?? Not being rude..

Check this in case it's no longer a school

Thank you Garstonite, I thought this too definately not the Cunliffe St lot. Susey/Susannah does fit they just seem a bit old as back then usually had kids straight away and can only find 2 so far. Henry born 1776 and died 1777 of Dale St. I think I'll go with her for now though.

Really grateful for all the responses on here :)
