Hi Rob
You must be pleased to have finally solved the problem of John's parents. It just shows that answers turn up when you least expect.
I'll have a look and see if I've still got my notes and next time I get to the Records Office in Stafford I'll have another look through the parish records and see if I can tie it all together. I don't know when I'll get chance to go - I broke my ankle earlier in the year and I'm just getting back to normal now.
Having read your other post on the Shropshire board it's all starting to make sense. Newport is only just in Shropshire and just a few miles away from Weston Park and Ivetsey Bank. Brewood is then just a few miles further east. Rickerscote is now an area of Stafford which explains the family's connection with Stafford. It's on the southern edge of Stafford but I guess at the time we are talking about it would have been considered a separate place.
Anyway I'll see what I can find.
