My 3rd ggrandfather George NASH was born c1821(he joined the army in Sep 1839 and gave his age as 17 1/2) he also stated that he was born in Codford? but dispite a thorough search of the PR's for Codford and the surrounding areas l have failed to find a baptism record for George? I am almost certain that his parents names are James & Charity nee MACEY, George states his fathers name on his wedding cert and he named his first daughter Diana Charity, an unusual name and putting that with the fact that James & Charity are baptising children around the time of Georges birth date! I know that both James & Charity lived in the Wylye valley area but they also baptised one of there sons in Romsey, Hants. If anyone could suggest another avenue to explore or has any further info l would be extremely grateful.
