According to the 1851 census for Whixall, my Francis WINDSOR was born about 1789 in Northwood,Shropshire. Can anyone tell me where he would have been baptized? Was there a parish church there or would he have been baptized in Wem? Ruth, Ontario,Canada

Hi Ruth There were three Northwood's in Shropshire, to my knowledge, but I seem to recall some Windsor folk being at Ellesmere, where one of the Northwood villages is located. Of course the well known one is near Wem, so could have been either!! I have an Ellesmere microfilm coming, so I will check out the Ellesmere one for you, hopefully with a bit of luck. If he was born in Northwood near Wem, then he would probably have been baptized at Wem. Cheers Graham
