Caroline Dinham Chard 1800
« on: Friday 27 January 12 22:00 GMT (UK) »
Trying to find the parents and christening for Caroline.
All I know of her is, she married a James Flower from Devizes, Wiltshire.
On the census returns she gives her place of birth as Honiton.
All census returns show a residence in Bedminster, Somerset
On a sons birth cert her maiden name is given as Dinhamchard.
I can find a James Denham Chard born in Dalwood,1801 son of Henry and Elizabeth
Any help please.

According to the Dalwood history site http://www.dalwoodhistory.co.uk/2.html the baptism in 1801 states James December CHARD. Henry & Elizabeth also baptised twin boys there in 1800. (The family lived at Lyme).
I think Wozzle's solution is more likely.

Many thanks guys for your quick responces. I had seen Caroline to John/Sarah and normally I would have gone for that, everything fits etc. Its just finding the Demham part [ancestry shows James baptism as Demham not December, it would be interesting to see the original] just puts doubt in my mind, too much of a coincidence for me. Guess I need to find her marriage.
Once again thanks and keep up the good work.

If you go to the Dalwood website I mentioned you can contact the person who did the transcription - she has the original registers to look at. http://www.dalwoodhistory.co.uk/

Hi Sheila - I would love to connect with you about this information if you see this message. I am not 100% sure of my relation yet, but I believe I am connected to James Flower and Caroline Chard via Maria Binden/Binding (1829-1874).

I am researching my paternal history which is DNA connected to the Matthews/Binding line which is Maria mentioned above's brother:
Elias Binding (1823-1867) / Susan Ellis (1824-1878)
- Edward Binding (1849-1930) / Jane Fear (1849-1928)
---Susan Binding (1876-1948) / Henry Charles Matthews (1875-1976)
---- then I believe my grandfather :)

Please feel free to private message me so we can discuss further, if you have the time and would like to. Thank you!
- Michelle
