This one is a bit of a long shot ... but I'm struggling here and it is a possibility so I need to investigate it if I can.
Thomas and Ann Escott had two daughters, Eliza and Jane, both baptised in Taunton, Somerset on 6 July 1834. However, according to FreeReg they were born in 1818 and 1821 reespectively (though where this information comes from I don't know ... it isn't showing up in the FindMyPast transcripts).
I wouldn't ordinarily be too concerned by the baptismal delay ... only I cannot find a marriage for their parents. The only one that FindMyPast is offering me is Thomas Escott and Johanna Preede, married 3 February 1811 in Cannamore, Madras.
And that got me thinking ... was Thomas Escott in the EIC service ... went to India and married and had his children there, then only had them baptised on returning to England??
Where (if at all) can I search for employees of the EIC and see if Thomas Escott is there?
I think he may be either the Thomas Escott, son of Charles & Betty, baptised in Dunster, Somerset on 30 October 1790 or the Thomas Escott, son of Thomas and Sarah, baptised in St Decumens, Somerset on 23 July 1782 ... so we're probably looking for an entry into EIC service in about 1800 - 1810 and discharge in the early 1830s.
EDITED to say ... it's almost certainly Thomas of St Decumens we're looking at, since the Dunster Thomas appears to have married Eliza Escott by licence on 2 September 1817.
