Welcome to rootschat.....
I find the grammar of this post appalling.....>
1. I am researching the Blundell of ince.
2.
Blundell, my great great great great grandfather was John Blundell born 1816 married to Margery
Massam born 1816.
3.
They were married in 1839.
4. John's father is listed as William Blundell shoemaker.
5. I have been trying for years to find John's birth records but don't know his mother's name.
6. I have come across a baptism record for a John born in 1816.
7.
Fa
rther William mother
Betty.
8.
He was born in Nashville.
9. How can I verify if it's the right John
? I would be very grateful if anybody can help me . etc
And now we can start to look at the problem.......
Firstly do you have a death certificate or obituary notice or gravestone or other death indicator?
Secondly , have you attempted to find any census for this family?
Thirdly, have you attempted to contact the librarians in Nashville Tennessee or looked at birth registration indexes to see if the family has other entries for the area?
This post needs to be moved to the American boards.....or the Lancashire boards....
there is a website for Lancashire UK known as lancsOPC and it has a great deal of the transcriptions of Ince...... I strongly recommend the use of that for data prior to 1816 etc....
