Baptism John Creed/Benedicta Noakes

[sunshine333]

Hi, I am looking for baptism of John Creed and Benedicta Noakes, they were married 8-6-1784 Beckley...any help would be appreciated...Rob

Possibly a red herring, but interesting red herring regardless:

Esther NOAKES chr. Beckley All Saints 16 Dec 1781.  Mother:  Benedicata NOAKES.  No father listed

Also SMI has groom's surname listed as CURD.  Although I see that this couple's children are generally listed as CREED.  Assume you have all these (Beckley All Saints), if not - Mary 1784, Sarah 1788, Edward 1793 -18 Sep 1796, David 1786, George 1791, William 1795 - 25 Sep 1795

Benedicta CREED bur. Beckley All Saints 6 Jul 1795 (w John) - leaving some young children and a new babe, how sad.

Can't see a possible baptism for a Benedicta Noakes as yet - will keep looking

Possible John CREED baptism?
John CREED chr Beckley All Saints 10 Feb 1765 to Mary CREED baseborn - interesting possibility looking at John's first daughter's name.

Another interesting bit of info:
A John CURD m. Sarah RUSSELL Beckley All Saints 10 Oct 1769.  They had a few children and then Sarah CREED, wife of John died, bur. 17 Apr 1782 Beckley All Saints.

I wonder if John CURD then married Benedicta NOAKES in 1784?  The SMI I have got does not mention John Curd as a widower at this marriage however.

John CURD could well be quite older than I originally assumed.

Still can't find a Benedicta Noakes
