Many thanks, that's really helpful. I am planning another trip to the Records Office in the Spring so it's good to have some ideas to work on.

If times got hard, maybe they couldn't afford baptism any more. IIRC there was a tax on baptisms around the 1790s which would increase the expense. Are you using FamilySearch? If so, be aware that not all events show up. If someone has added a member submission to the old IGI, then if a batch extract "duplicated" that event, the batch extract is not recorded as the IGI couldn't handle duplicate records. When records were transferred to the "new" FamilySearch, there was no new batch extract so the event will be missing. (Source for this: AncestryInsider some years ago) Always check the original PRs and also the BTs as well (they aren't always the same - some events get missed on one or the other) Not all non-con records are available to look at - maybe some are there. Yes, it's a pain. I would love to be able to deduce family groups but without all the records it becomes impossible to say xx is son of yy because he can't be anyone else's. >Clues or advice would be gratefully received. Keep looking! Things do turn up as new recordsets are added to Ancestry etc. HTH Andy.

Hi Helen, when this sort of thing happens in the lines I'm chasing, it often means the families were non-conformists - have you tried looking among the various dissenter records in your locations of interest?

Hello, I am trying to work on a reasonably unusual surname in a fairly localised area. I have found many marriages where no baptismal record appears to exist for adults with this surname. From the names of their subsequent children there appears to be a strong link with known families in the area. Has anyone come across families where some baptisms are recorded and others not? If you had lots of children would you baptise them all or miss a few? As far as I can tell all the local potential venues for baptism either have their records on line or can be seen at the Records Office and I have looked as thoroughly as I can. The time period that I am looking at is primarily 1700 to 1780. Clues or advice would be gratefully received. Helen

Hello Sue, What was the name of the first child to Mary Winter? & date of christening. There are no church records available for Stonnall or Stapenhill...where did you find these baptisms? Have you by any chance looked for wills for the deceased? Many thanks. Robyn -----Original Message----- From: staffordshire-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:staffordshire-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Sue Sent: Monday, 21 January 2013 7:32 PM To: staffordshire@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [STAFFORDSHIRE] ALDRIDGE and WINTERS Stonnall Ok Robyn - from what you say there does seem to be a link between us. If I am correct my Joyce WINTER(S) and your Mary WINTER are the 3rd & 4th children of Joseph WINTERS and Joice ? (possibly HANSON). As I said yesterday Joseph 'appears' to have originated in Stapenhill (I have a possible baptism for him of 6 June 1730 at Stapenhill, son of Joseph and Marie WINTERS) but moved to Stonnall before 1770 when the remainder of his and Joice's children were born. ie Thomas 1770-1845 Stonnall, William 1771-1836 Stonnall, Charles 1777, and Sarah 1777. (I am assuming Charles baptism was probably a late one). The other children I have are: James b?, Samuel b?-buried 1807 Stonnall, (then Joyce c1760 and Mary 11 December 1762 Stapenhill), Ann 1764-1832 Stonnall, and there is possibly another daughter called Jane born c1766. Of these children William born 1771 seems to have been the most successful, being a farmer. I have no record of what occupation Joseph was employed in, but as Stonnall is still a farming community he almost certainly was employed upon the land. Joseph died in 1797 and is buried at St John, Shenstone and Joice died in 1813 and is buried at St Peter, Stonnall. I will have a scout through the records I have here and see if I can find any further information for you regarding the ALDRIDGE/WINTER connection. PS: my Joyce WINTERS (1760-1811) married my maternal 4xgt.grandfather William GLOVER 1782 at St Peter, Wolverhampton, but they actually lived in the Pelsall/Walsall Wood area settling at Shaver's End, Shelfield.

Is there any one also researching this couple or could tell me anything of the Aldridge family. One of their younger sons Edmond married my ancestor Ann Southall. This marriage took place at Whittington a few years after their son Joseph was born 1826. Joseph kept his mother's name. Edmond had more children after his wife died to a Diane Harris. Edmond also did 6 months hard labour after he & Diane her daughter & her son Matthew Preston were caught in the house of Richard Southall. Richard was the eldest son of his first wife Ann Southall. Matthew Preston was a very hardened criminal & did many years in jail. There must have been an interesting tale behind why the 4 of them were in this house of Richard Southall, the court records do not reveal anything to me unfortunately. The women were spared any charges laid against them, again interesting & why!! I actually have a photo of Edmond as a young man. If anyone can shed some light on the Aldridge family I would be most grateful.

If I am correct my Joyce WINTER(S) and your Mary WINTER are the 3rd & 4th children of Joseph WINTERS and Joice ? (possibly HANSON). As I said yesterday Joseph 'appears' to have originated in Stapenhill (I have a possible baptism for him of 6 June 1730 at Stapenhill, son of Joseph and Marie WINTERS) but moved to Stonnall before 1770 when the remainder of his and Joice's children were born. ie Thomas 1770-1845 Stonnall, William 1771-1836 Stonnall, Charles 1777, and Sarah 1777. (I am assuming Charles baptism was probably a late one). The other children I have are: James b?, Samuel b?-buried 1807 Stonnall, (then Joyce c1760 and Mary 11 December 1762 Stapenhill), Ann 1764-1832 Stonnall, and there is possibly another daughter called Jane born c1766. Of these children William born 1771 seems to have been the most successful, being a farmer. I have no record of what occupation Joseph was employed in, but as Stonnall is still a farming community he almost certainly was employed upon the land. Joseph died in 1797 and is buried at St John, Shenstone and Joice died in 1813 and is buried at St Peter, Stonnall. I will have a scout through the records I have here and see if I can find any further information for you regarding the ALDRIDGE/WINTER connection. PS: my Joyce WINTERS (1760-1811) married my maternal 4xgt.grandfather William GLOVER 1782 at St Peter, Wolverhampton, but they actually lived in the Pelsall/Walsall Wood area settling at Shaver's End, Shelfield.

Is there any one also researching this couple or could tell me anything of the Aldridge family. One of their younger sons Edmond married my ancestor Ann Southall. This marriage took place at Whittington a few years after their son Joseph was born 1826. Joseph kept his mother's name. Edmond had more children after his wife died to a Diane Harris. Edmond also did 6 months hard labour after he & Diane her daughter & her son Matthew Preston were caught in the house of Richard Southall. Richard was the eldest son of his first wife Ann Southall. Matthew Preston was a very hardened criminal & did many years in jail. There must have been an interesting tale behind why the 4 of them were in this house of Richard Southall, the court records do not reveal anything to me unfortunately. The women were spared any charges laid against them, again interesting & why!! I actually have a photo of Edmond as a young man. If anyone can shed some light on the Aldridge family I would be most grateful.

He had 2 children George BASSETT HUMPHREYS 1872 and Elizabeth BASSETT HUMPHREYS 1874, both of whom were born in Tinkersclough, I have their birth certificates and baptismal records. There doesn't seem to be a record of his and Leah's marriage as when she did marry a few years later she is recorded as a Spinster. I wonder whether he was already married but had left his wife. When his children married they decided to use their mothers name of Bassett. I cannot find any record on the 1881 census of the family, which by then included Leah her married name was Banner and had two more children named William and Samuel BANNER. I have tried lateral thinking to knock the various brickwalls down, this is how I found George and his brothers as I had very little to go on. John by the way was recorded on 1871 as born in Whitchurch, but William and George are just given as Shropshire. William is on the 1881 census but it is not clear which area of Shropshire is his place of birth.
