*COMPLETED* Owersby Baps circa 1764 GRESSBY/GRASSBY
« on: Monday 25 August 08 19:46 BST (UK) »
I have a Thomas GRESSBY, labourer and wife Elizabeth on a settlement order at Dunholme, dated 03/05/1776, with dau Rebecca "aged 11" and "son Thomas" (no age given). If my guess is correct this is Thomas GRESSBY and Elizabeth MARTIN who married 17 March 1764 at Owersby. I would be very grateful if anyone with access to Owersby baps could look to see if there are any births there circa 1764-76 for GRESSBY or GRASSBY. Thank you for looking.

Owersby baptisms for that period are in IGI batch C030912

The 128 baptisms for 1759-78 don't seem to include any of your lot I'm afraid. :(
Don't cry because its over. Smile because it happened.

Thanks for looking, I'll have to have another think. I wish they had stayed in one place - would have made life a lot simpler.
