Edward Dolphin, 1755
« on: Monday 28 September 15 18:33 BST (UK) »
Can anyone please help me find any information about Edward Dolphin and family, born I think in 1755 in Chirbury, Shropshire. I believe him to be my 4th great grandfather. Thanks.

Chirbury:  baptism for Edward Dolphin on 27 Aug 1748 - parents Edward & Elizabeth
Chirbury:  baptism for Edward Dolphin on 16 May 1780 - parents Samuel & Mary

Pontesbury : baptism for Edward Dolphin on 23 June 1765 - parents William & Martha

http://www.melocki.org.uk/salop/Worthen.html   Dolphin  21 listed

Dolphin is uncommon, so I would group all the Dolphin's into families. Hopefully you will see the connection to your line, but they are all related.

I would group the Shropshire and Montgomeryshire lines.

Good luck.
