Richard Morgan & Mary Lowe of Martley?
« on: Monday 22 August 05 14:46 BST (UK) »
I was wondering if someone would be able to help me.

I am trying to find the Baptism records for Richard Morgan & Mary Lowe 'of Martley'.

From the IGI I have:

Richard Morgan
About 1722 Of, Martley, Worcester, England

Mary Lowe
About 1726 Of, Martley, Worcester, England

However, when looking through the parish records for Martley I could not find anything.

I have managed to find their marriage in Powick (not Martley as stated with the IGI).

I would be very grateful if someone could help me with this!

Hi There,

I have a transcript of the parish records (up to about 1837) for Martley & will have a look for you so keep your fingers crossed

All the very best

Hi Rebecca,

I went through my fiches with a fine tooth comb but could find no mention of your Richard nor was there any mention of Mary but when I looked at the index there are no Lowe's at all (I only went to the index after searching - as I dont trust them to cover everything).

All I can suggest is that you try all the contiguous parishes - Wichenford, Broadwas, Doddenham, Clifton on Teme, Shelsley Beauchamp, Great Witley, Little Witley, Astley, Shrawley & Whitbourne (HEF).

Keep searching

All the very best

Phil

ps there are a lot of Morton enties but not for near the years you need
Worcestershire - Heeks, Maiden, Pinchin, Hartland, Tredwell, Holliday, Morton, Collins, Aldington, Saunders
Oxfordshire - Gomm, Hamblet, Austin, Winter,
Herefordshire - Lowe
Radnor - Lowe, Powell
Gloucestershire - Holliday, Pinchin

Thanks very much for having a look for me anyway!

I will look into these other areas that you suggest ...... they must be there somewhere!

Thanks once again,

Rebecca
