Mercy Geale or Jeale-completed.
« on: Friday 10 December 10 20:59 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find the baptism of Mercy Geale born around 1802. According to her census input that was in Edenbridge but the Edenbridge parish records on the Weald website do not have her baptism there. There are some individuals baptised around then under the last name Jeal/Jeale but no Mercy. I can't see her birth anywhere else covered on the IGI in Kent or nearby Sussex and Surrey.Her marriage was in Edenbridge but the record does not give parents names, which is what I want.
 I see a rootschatter by the name of Claire Bear had an interest in Geales in the same area but she has not been logged into this site since 2009 so I don't think that she'll be able to help.
Thanks to anyone that can find Mercy. I'm stumped!

Have you tried sending Claire Bear a personal message?

Providing she has not changed her email address she will receive notificaion of the personal message on Rootschat.

Edenbridge baptisms for this time period are on the FamilySearch Pilot but I can't see Mercy.  Have you tried looking at non-conformist records?

Did she live long enough to be included in the 1851 census and therefore have a place of birth listed?

Thanks everyone. Don't worry about the link I typed what you put into my browser and it worked fine. Mercy Cheall does look a good bet because I now do think that Mercy's mother was a Mary. Also I can see that the two last names do get confused a bit in other records I've browsed through. As do Jeal and Teal as well. Sounds like further research could be a bit of a headache!
Anyway, by marriage Mercy is a Peacock and I've found that one of the Weald websites contributers for Edenbridge has a special interest in this particular Edenbridge family. She can be contacted through that site so she may be able to help me further as well.
I will look up Claire Bear too through a personal message. Thanks for that tip Bearkat.
Merry Christmas and Best wishes to all, Ryeone. ;D
