Elizabeth Margaret WATERFIELD
« on: Friday 09 March 12 20:46 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to locate a baptism record for Elizabeth Margaret WATERFIELD who gives her place of birth as Jersey on the 1861 and 1871 censuses. Her date of birth varies between 1811 and 1816. She married Thomas SQUANCE (a mariner) in East Stonehouse, Devon in 1834.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi

There is a baptism in St. Helier Parish Church for Elizabeth Waterfield on 17th Oct 1813. Daughter of John Waterfield and of Suzanne his wife. GP's were Elliot and James Hardie, Margaret Laurence and Sarah McRidge.

There is no mention of Elizabeth's second name.

You are a star! This will be her - her parents had many children in Devon - unbeknownst to me they must have gone to Jersey briefly - there is a gap in Devon baptisms between 1808 and 1816. Father was a mason so perhaps his work took him there.
