Mary Price baptism in Wapping?
« on: Tuesday 22 September 20 06:31 BST (UK) »
I'm hoping someone could please help in locating the baptism of my 5x great-grandmother, Mary Price. I can't find her father.

Mary married Edward Hoskin in St George's in the East in 1778. According to what I believe is her burial record in Croydon she was born around 1758.
One of the witnesses to the marriage was Raymond Payne.. I found Raymond Payne marrying Sarah Price, a widow, both from Wapping in 1768 by licence.
In 1784 Edward Hoskin gets some insurance in Sarah's name so she must be Mary's mother.

There's a banns notice for 1758 for William Price and Sarah Berbetain(??) in Wapping but another a few years later for William and Jane.

I'm hoping someone is able to please look at baptisms for Wapping to see if Mary is in there? I tried to get to the Docklands Ancestors website but it's turned into a trojan nightmare.

I have found other baptisms elsewhere but more around Holborn (where a Mary Price is baptised to Charles and Sarah Price; another contender since one of her sons was Charles Raymond). I want to make sure she wasn't born in Wapping though.

Thank you if anyone can help!

Regards,
Kellie

Thanks for that baptism mckha489 :) At 24 days old, and it being 1769.. she would've been 9 when she got married?  ???
