Birth/Baptism of Rebecca Cheek
« on: Wednesday 28 October 09 17:42 GMT (UK) »
Hi can anyone help me with the birth or baptism of Rebecca Cheek born about 1827 in Great Dunmow.Her father was Benjamin Cheek Schoolmaster and her mother Sarah. Any other children by this couple would also help.
Thank you
Yvonne

Hi I don't have a marriage record of Sarah and Benjamin and I have not found them on any census.I have found Rebecca on all census records up to her death (except 1841) and I have copies of her marriage to William Triggs in 1847 and George Prior in 1857 both of these show her father as Benjamin Schoolmaster.I have found baptism records of Mary Ann and William son and daughter of Benjamin and Sarah in Hythe Kent.There is a removal order  to Hythe for Sarah Cheek and five children wife of absconded schoolmaster Benjamin in the Essex records office but I have not got a copy of it yet.This has been the most complicated branch of my family tree.
Thank you Yvonne

Hello Yvonne,

Sorry I can't help with Rebecca's baptism, but there is this interesting clip from The Examiner, Sunday July 1 1832, about Benjamins disappearance...
