Hi Colin, In my previous message, I noted that Jane's possible grandfather, Adam WILTSHIRE, son of Adam and Sarah, was baptized on 2nd. April 1797 at Westerleigh, GLS. A likely match for his parents, Jane's great-grandparents, could be Adam WILTSHIRE and Sarah GARDINER whose marriage on 8th. April 1792 was recorded in the Wapley & Codrington register. This marriage is included in the Bristol Diocese Marriage Registers Vol 9 Groom & Bride Indexes & Transcripts 1754-1812. www.bafhs.org.uk Josephine -- Josephine Jeremiah www.ianandjo.dsl.pipex.com
