further to this Roy's note below - on looking for Emily on the census there is only one born Aston/Bampton in or around 1850 the daughter of Joseph CLINCH, farmer, born 1795 or 1797 (depending on which census) at Aston, living Bampton and Caroline CLINCH born 1816 at Aston. In 1851 they have four children all shown as born Cote: Richard, 9; Frederick 4; Maria, 2; and Emily 1. Is there another church in the area where they could have baptised the other children? Or maybe they did not baptise the others as this was no longer a requirement after 1837. In 1861 he is a widower, Maria is not with the family and he has another daughter Sarah age 9: all children shown as born Bampton I think that the Emily CLINCH witness is probably another relative (maybe the widow of William ) as by 1891 your Emily is not showing as CLINCH in the indexes Wendy -----Original Message----- From: Roy Overall Sent: Sunday, September 04, 2011 9:26 PM To: oxfordshire@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [OXF] Emily CLINCH Dear Elizabeth, As transcriber in 1997 of the Bampton, Aston (including Cote) Parish registers I have found 27 CLINCHs, only one Emily d of James & Harriet baptised on 26 Dec 1875.

Elizabeth, I've been studying all the families in Minster Lovell and some of the surrounding villages including Aston & Cote, and have found that parents either baptised all children, no children, or tended to be a bit more haphazard, especially if it was not the first or second child, or if they had produced many children in a short space of time, so there might not be a baptism for Emily. Also some people would use their second name in census documents, so it's worth looking out for something other than Emily. Some children were occasionally baptised away from home, often at their mother's home parish - where it that for Emily's mother? I had a quick check in other local spots - Shifford, Standlake, Yelford which are all nearby, but no Emily.
