Chipping Norton Parish records - TILLING - COMPLETED

[Mrs MMD]

Could someone with the Chipping Norton parish records please check for:
-the marriage of John TILLING & Sarah (both born around 1781 in Chipping Norton)
-any TILLING baptisms between 1795 & 1820

Thank you.

Hi

I checked my copy of the OFHS transcribed prs for St. Mary Chipping Norton
No sign of the marriage taking place there
I then checked the OFHS Oxfordshire Parish Marriage Index unfortunately there was no marriage for John & Sarah on there either 
Tried all sorts of variants of the name.

Chipping Norton baptisms

Elizth TILLIN      31 Aug 1817  d John & Sarah, shoemaker

No sign of John's baptism, the only TILLING bapt prior to the above group was a Richard in 1777

Thank you very much for that Myfi.  I was hoping to find John & Sarah's marriage.  I also found a Hannah Tilling who married Timothy Slatter in 1833 in Chipping Norton, and I've found her in the 1841 census in Chipping Norton, with 2 children, aged 25, so putting her birth year c1816.  I believe her husband was sent to Australia as a convict in 1840.  I was kind of hoping Hannah would be another of John & Sarah's children, as I'm not sure how many Tillings from Chipping Norton aren't connected to my tree. 

Thank you again Myfi.

 It is possible that Hannah could have been a child of John & Sarah, likewise a couple of the children* in this list of burials

 5 May 1771 Hannah 61   (earliest Tilling burial in St. Marys)
24 Dec 1782 William 74
15 Oct 1794 Ann       57
29 Nov 1812 Richd   infant*
 6 Mar  1816 John    infant*
 8 Jan  1832 Mary Ann infant of Rockhill

baptisms

16 Oct 1831 Mary Ann TILLING  d Rebecca, single woman

nothing on the IGI either for the baptisms of Richard, John, Rebecca & Hannah so perhaps they were born/bapt in one of the parishes not included.

Could this be Hannah's burial?
14 Apr 1854 Hannah SLATTER age 41

Thank you for those extra bits of information Myfi.

In the 1841 Oxford census John's POB is listed as 'in county', and I can't find Sarah anywhere, but everyone who has John & Sarah in their tree has their date and place of birth as c1781, Chipping Norton, Oxford.  However, I have just found John & Sarah Tilling in the 1851 census, with their surname spelt differently.  John is listed as born c1783 in Gloucestershire, and Sarah is listed as born c1779 in Monmouthshire, Wales.  So now I have the possibility that someone has made an assumption on the birth details and every other researcher has just copied it without verifying.  I will now head over to the relevant boards to see what I can find.

Thank you again for your help Myfi.

Hello,
I am interested in the result of this request and also any information you have on Timothy Slater/Slatter.  Timothy is my Great Grandfather and I'm trying to find his baptismal certificate.  He was born in 1813 in Chipping Norton.

Regards
Cherie (from Australia)

Caroline married 1843 to Elijah DIXON, Father William a Labourer
Witnesses William Slatter, he did not sign and Phoebe Bolton (married sister born 1808?)

Just found on F/S.Org submitted record;

Marriage
18 March 1793
Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, England
WIlliam SLATTER to Elizabeth KEEN

3 children I didnt find;
MARY 1794-1863
WILLIAM 1796-1808

They have William dying 1844 but he isn't on 1841 Census so this is more likely;
