Tom Collyer and all? - Just Tom

[frogspawn4]

Would some kind person see if they can find a baptism record for a Thomas Collyer born about 1862 in Dymchurch. Father Michael Collyer Mother Jane Maynard. They married Dec 1856 in Dymchurch. There does not appear to be a registration of his birth

I have his marriage Cert - 1885 Lowestoft to my G Grandmother Emma - and his death Cert - 1938 in Peckham. Both suggest a birth date of 1862

There is however a birth and death record for a Thomas Collyer Maynard in June 1856-Dec 1856 Romney Marsh. I don't know whether to send for these and see if they help?
Many thanks

Hello Frogspawn4

Have you seen the birth for Tom Colyer Mar qu 1862 Romney Marsh 2a 768
You could try ordering and asking to check the fathers name that way if hes not right it wouldnt cost you the full £7

I see from the 71 census he is down as Thom Collyer

Hi

I have checked this one and it's not the correct one. I'm thinking that he wasn't registered and am hoping that he was baptised

Thanks for looking

Hi J,
         This could be him!

          Births :-     Sep 1862 ,   COLLYER.   Male     Ticehurst    2b    73

                      Cant see any others that fit the date frame given on the thread.
                                             Good Luck Rog

Hmmmm, I would have thought he was more likely to be the 1862 one in Romney Marsh than the Ticehurst one ........ perhaps the year has been misread from the baptism register in the transcription or baptised late or ..............

So did I ,but I couldnt find any other Birth Reg in Kent or Sussex arround the date. So offered it as a tongue in cheek suggestion .
