Henry RICHARDSON - Baptised 1805 - St Neot's, Huntingdonshire, England

[rbell35]

My gg-grandfather Henry RICHARDSON (wife: Jane GARDNER) was baptised in 1805 according to the 1841/51 Census entries for St Neots. I am still attempting to locate the baptismal entry for Henry but am having difficulty finding it! I am also trying to establish who his parents were? According to one source on Ancestry.com his father was an Edward RICHARDSON born in Iping, Sussex in 1754 (mother: Ann BARNETT). This may be true however I am wishing to see the evidence for a Sussex link. Can someone please clarify Henry's correct details? Thanking you. Cheers, Rob

Thanks magslote. Yes I saw this entry and am confident this is my Henry. However am not sure where Edward & Ann originated from? Can anyone find a likely marriage entry for this couple? Furthermore I am wondering whether they were locals (St Neots's/Huntingdonshire) or perhaps from another county? Any help appreciated thanks. Cheers, Rob

The St Neots marriages on FindMyPast which are extracted records
Have an Ed. w. Richardson marrying an Ann Barnett w.    At St Neots in 1802.

I assume the w = widower and widow

Added. Nothing about Sussex.

Thanks Mckha, do you have a date for the 1802 marriage? I used to have access to FindmyPast but the library has now restricted access to the site! Ah well!! I will try to do a search onfamilysearch.org for a Barnett marrying an Ann in the surrounding district too. Cheers, Rob

No, it’s just a typed list, and it only has the year

[mckha489]

Possible previous husband of Ann is Francis Barnett, a labourer buried 7 Oct 1798

I cannot see a marriage for him though.

Other Barnett burials at St Neots that look likely to be connected are

16 Jan 1797, George the son of Francis a lab.
23 Nov 1799 Catherine the dau of Ann a widow
25 Nov 1799  John the son of Ann a widow.
