Hi all,
I'm finishing up a family file to compile my research and am following up on a few brick walls. I would like to please request that someone have a look for baptism records for a pair of brick wall ancestors. Their names are Thomas Trinder and Susan Sherring. Thomas was born c. 1796, and is listed in the 1841 and 1851 censuses as a hat finisher. The '51 census lists his PoB as simply 'London', but he's in Lambeth for both so that might be a good place to start. He died in 1852 in a workhouse. Interestingly, his age there is listed as 60, so 1792 may be the right date, but it's probably just an estimate. I would also like to known more about his wife, Susan Sherring, who is more elusive. She seems to have died before 1841, so no DoB can be confidently assigned, but 1800 is a good estimate. They married in 1824 in St Dunstan's with witnesses listed as 'Mary Ann Trinder' and 'Daniel McMillan'. There is confusion as to their children; most trees list George Richard (b.1812), Edward Sherring (b.1821), my ancestor John Thomas (b.1824) and Thomas (b.1834), though if this is true two of the children were born out of wedlock and there seems to be confusion as to whether George was actually the son of Susan Sherring, who must have been older. I'd just like for someone to please have a look or some baptisms so I can crack the wall and go a bit further.
Best wishes,
Francis
