William Stevens c1801 (Monks Risborough)??

[bucksboy]

Hi all,

I have William Stevens c1801  marrying Rebecca Rogers/Rodgers in 1823. Monks Risborough, Buckinghamshire.

In 1841, they are living in Meadle, Monks Risborough with 9 of their children. And Williams y.o.b is given as 1806

In 1851 they are living in  Monks Risborough (Redland End) minus Rebecca. (Dies 1844).

I am trying to find William Stevens(1801) parentage, and most leads head towards Dinton, but nothing confirmed as yet.

Thanks.

Steve.

On the 1851 it gives him born in Monks Risborough

There is an IGI extracted record of a William Stevens ch. 15.2.1801 Monks Risborough..... father Thomas.... mother Jane.

With such a common surname its going to be difficult to pinpoint the correct parents. I note his eldest child in 51 is a Thomas

Yes, I have that info now thankyou.

At least I'm getting closer.  As I live in Ireland now, access to records is a bit limited.

Thanks for looking for me.

Hmmmm, curiouser and curiouser.

Just found out Williams eldest 2 sons, John(1824) and William(1826), were living in Meadle, Monks Risborough,   but were baptised in Dinton, Bucks.

All other children baptised Monks Risborough.

I think William(1801),  father may have originated from Dinton.
