catherine langham bap 12/4/1795, All Saints, Leicester

[kit54]

Hi,
I thought that I'd found Catherine's baptism in 1795, in All Saints, Leicester as:

Baptised 12th April    Kitty    Wm and Mary Langham   born April 10th

(She married Joseph Raven in St Margaret's on 9/3/1818)
However, I have also come across another souce of information which states that she was born in 1797!
(I know from census info that she was born in Leicester, about 1795)
So, please , would anyone  be so kind as check this out for me, by looking up the baptisms of all Catherine/Kitty/Kate Langham in Leicester from about 1793-1800, to see if there is more than one?
I'd be very, very grateful.

Hi Mike,
Thank you very much for the information, I'm extremely happy to know I was on the right track and extremely grateful to you for your tremendous kindness.
Please would you do another favour for me?
If you would, please could you try to find William's and Mary's baptisms for me? I do not know if they were born in Leicester or Leistershire.

Another complication is that I know that there is another William Langham (and Ann) having children about the same time as my William and Mary, but they are in St Margaret's.

Also, (even worse)!, in All Saints I have found:
1. William Langham and Sarah Rothiom married 15/1/1785
2. There are children baptised abt 1808-1813 to William and Margaret Langham

So, are there 3 William Langhams in All Saints about the same time, or has he been married 3 times?

I'd love to have your thoughts,

Many thanks again,

Chris

So not sure where your third William within All Saints Parish comes in for now. ……


But we need to check out the original Registers
In order to find out the status of the William’s as to whether they are Bachelors or Widowers the down side will be that seeing the early dates involved the ages will not be shown.

When trying to find possible Parents of a person with out too much details
“ As a rule of thumb “
We usually go back 20 years from their know marriage
and then……… and this is pure guess work ……..
