cordellia Richards born 1790 Bedfordshire
« on: Thursday 09 June 11 09:06 BST (UK) »
Hi
I am trying to research Cordelia Richards born in Bedfordshire about 1790.
Would like to make contact with anyone else also researching this family, especially "ElizabethMenziesSmith" who has a tree on Ancestry as I do not have a subscription.

Bedfordshire is one of the easier counties to research as virtually all baptisms and marriages pre 1813 have been extracted onto the IGI at www.familysearch.org. Cordelia's baptism on 15 Oct 1789 at Bedford St Paul, and her birth on 23 July 1789, daughter of George and Elizabeth can be found there

Hi David
Yes, thanks, that was my starting point. What I would like to know is what happened to her and any siblings of hers, as there could well be more than one set of George and Elizabeth Richards having children in that area at that time!!!
