Aston on Trent - JONES & WRIGHT families 1700s
« on: Monday 16 June 14 21:52 BST (UK) »
Hi I wonder if anyone can please assist me with the above parish?

I am looking for information on the families of Pryce/Price Jones and his wife Frances (formerly Wright), who married in London in 1790.

Their eldest child was baptised in Aston on Trent:

Frances Jones baptised 31 July 1791 Aston on Trent, Derbyshire. Born 2 June 1791   

I would really like to know if any further details are perhaps given in the original entry.

I assume Frances' mother is therefore the Frances Wright, daughter of William and Elizabeth Wright, who was baptised in Aston on Trent in 1769.

Unfortunately the lack of indexed wills means finding out more about the family is problematic.

If anyone can please assist me with this look up, I would be most grateful.

Many thanks,
Jon
