Hi List, I am in correspondence with a researcher tracing their Ecchinswell/Kingsclere STEVENS family. In the course of doing census searches I found in the 1881 census at St Giles Reading, Berks at 23 Silver St an unmarried lodger called John STEVENS giving his birth year as 1856 and a birthplace of Kingsclere, Hants. His occupation was Shoeblack. He might be: Birth FreeBMD Whitchurch 1857 1Q 2c 176 STEVENS, John Alexander There is a Robert STEVENS and Elizabeth ALEXANDER on the same page at Marriage FreeBMD Andover 1851 2Q 7 63. If it all matches Robert STEVENS could be Robert STEVENS b 1827 Kingsclere Town baptised 25 Nov 1827 and described on John's website. We do know Robert b 1827 was a shoemaker and that he was at Hurstbourne Tarrant in the 1851 census Can anybody help with a PR baptism or his family, there are no records for this person on John's website? Thanks in advance for any assistance, before having to send for the certificate to investigate. Regards, Nigel
