Hello Victor

I thank you once again for your assistance and for the coupes marriage record info.  I am genuinely appreciative of the assistance of you and of everyone who has assisted.

Living in Australia means the only records available to me are those that are on line and sometimes there are huge gaps and the RootsChatters help enormously.  I am indebted to one and all.

Hi Westy,
Well, tillyc seems to have solved the answer to your post.
I had already visited the local Library to check the A******y website, but Hilda was NOT listed on that site, and it was my intention to check the St Peter, Upper Slaughter baptism records tomorrow morning.
Meanwhile I had found the following baptisms for Hilda's siblings, f. Fulwar John Colquitt CRAVEN & m. Sarah Llewellyn CRAVEN at St Andrew, Sevenhampton:-
19/12/1873, Lewis Fulwar John CRAVEN
01/06/1876, Arabel Laura CRAVEN
13/12/1881, Nigel Fulwar de la Beche CRAVEN
I shall still be in Glos Archives (GA) tomorrow morning, so if I can still be of any help, do let me know today.
Victor

Hello Victor

Thank you for the additional information and for Nigel's record.  I cannot think of anything else and thank you for asking. 

Kind regards

It may be worth emphasising here that the parish registers on Ancestry are subject to the same transcription problems as the other records there, so inventive searching may be needed. Tillyc has given the correct transcription for the baptism of Hilda Charlotte Craven, but Ancestry has:

'Hilda Charlette, parents Fridrick John Colguits and Sarah Dewelya Gaven'

Especially with smaller parishes such as Upper Slaughter I am inclined to ignore the transcription and look through the register page by page. Alternatively, enter nothing except the parish name and a year (or year range), then look carefully at the transcriptions.

Hi Jane
I always search by parish and go page by page given all the problems encountered with A......y. Tilly

Thanks  whiteout7

Do you think the article is essentially referencing the line for an inheritance matter?

Hi Westy,
I know that you are keen to obtain a facsimile of Hilda's baptism record, so I list the steps to be taken on A******y.
Go to Gloucestershire Archives page.
Click on Gloucestershire Baptisms 1813-1913 and then Parish, scroll down and click on Upper Slaughter, and then click on 1813-1908 below, and then click on search.
This will bring you to Page 1 of the Upper Slaughter baptism register.
Click on 1, which highlights in blue, and replace with 83, and then click on Go. This will take you to Image 83 where you will find Hilda's baptism, No 566.
Hope that helps.
