Daniel Diggle 1725-1768

[Sued123]

Hi, I've hit a  brick wall. I'm trying to trace my husbands 5th great grandad. Daniel Diggle  born 1725-1768. He was born as far as I know in or  around Basford, Nottingham. I'm presuming he was born about 1725 but haven't found a baptism record for him. I'm also trying to find the name of his parents to move further back. Any help would be appreciated. Sue

There is this one, image online

Name   Daniel Diggle
Gender   Male
Event Type   Baptism
Baptism Date   23 Dec 1759
Baptism Place   Basford, St. Leodegarius, Nottinghamshire, England
Father   Daniel Diggle
Mother   Pleby Diggle

Edit - took it to mean between those dates, but you mean that was his life span. So no help.

I'm working on the basis that he may have married Phoebe Barton under the name "Daggley". Can you confirm?

Their 1745 marriage on FindMyPast has "Ragnall" as the residence of both - marriage place Radford. 

[Sued123]

I have the marriage as 1 dec 1745 and his surname as Diggley, but yes it was in Radford.

So, you are searching for Daniel, age unknown at death in 1768?

[Sued123]

Yes that is right, his burial is registered as at St. Leodagarius, Basford, but I can't seem to find a baptism or his parents. He married in Radford to Pheby Barton in 1745

[hanes teulu]

I'd spotted the '68 death.
The marriage record on FindMyPast (transcript only) has "Ragnall" as residence of both.

Ok they lived in Basford at time of death's if those details are correct

I find it is always useful to list out all the names of the children of the person whom you are investigating, as naming patterns can be useful pointers towards parentage.

In this case:
Mary, James (perhaps the father's name?), Abraham, Nathan (unusual), Samuel Ishewood (unusual), Phoebe, Ann, Daniel, John, William.

There is a Daniel Diggle, baptised on 1st July 1720 in Eccles, Lancashire, to James Diggle of Pendleton.

This Daniel also had an older brother called Nathan.

Likely marriage for parents:

James Diggles, of Eccles, married Mary Usherwood on 2nd January 1704 at Manchester St. Mary. Could Mary's surname have inspired Samuel's middle name?
