Have you thought to look for a will for father William. If he was a Farmer there is a chance he may have made one which hopefully would name his children thus confirming his relationship with your George.

Father William was stated as a FARMER In the 1841 Census, there is a William Walker and Hannah who live very close to George and Hannah.

Hi Lin Thank you for all your help... Julie

Hi Julie You can find quite a lot of info on Uttoxeter on GenUki's pages .... see http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/STS/Uttoxeter/ regards Bill -----Original Message----- From: staffordshire-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:staffordshire-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Janet Booth Sent: 24 November 2012 12:04 To: staffordshire@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [STAFFORDSHIRE] Parish Records Hi Julie, Family Search extracted baptisms at Uttoxeter show both a William & Hannah WALKER and a William & Elizabeth WALKER have children baptised within the timescale of your George's birth date but unfortunately not one for George. You could make a Family Tree for both sets of parents and see if there is a suitable gap for him to have been baptised either at Uttoxeter and missing from the IGI or elsewhere in the vicinity. You say you have the marriage certificate for George & Hannah and that his father's name is shown as William. However, according to the 1851 census, his children were all born before registration began. Was he married twice perhaps and his second marriage after registration began? If so, what was the occupation of his father on George's marriage certificate as that may help us to trace his father via other records.

Thank you Eric and Denise for the pointers and the information. Another Lister, John, was able to send me the information I needed, too, but my response to the List didn't arrive. I hope this does. My apologies, Peter, for the confusion you found. I could have been clearer if I'd said that William & Sarah WATTS and their family of 7 children arrived in Biddulph 'from Bollington where a further 4 children were born.' Eleven children in total were born to this couple. I did name the children born in Biddulph and also gave the name of their second child (born in Bollington), Martha Pierpoint WATTS, who was 20 years old, not two, when she married William STONIER. And thank you, yes, I do have all the evidence from BMDs and Censuses for the family thereafter, plus - and I'm lucky in this particular line of research - from a number of other sources too. Ruth

Julie, I know Willslock, there's nothing there, may have been a couple of Farm Cottages years ago, lovely location though, as is Loxley. HTH Lin.

Hi Janet Thank you for that. On the marriage Certificate for George Walker and Hannah it states his father is William.

It looks as if at least one and perhaps another - although both George and Hannah would have been very young - of George & Hannah's children were baptised at Uttoxeter (source Hugh Waliis's IGI site): 10 October 1813 Ann daughter of George & Hannah WALKER 13 May 1840 James son of George & Hannah WALKER buried 13 September 1842 The parish church of Stramshall was only built between 1850 and 1852 (source Wikipedia), so would not be relevant as a baptismal place to George and his family. Have you found George & Hannah's marriage record? According to the 1851 census, Hannah was born in Wills Lock, which apparently is a small hamlet near to Loxley which in itself is a liberty in the parish of Uttoxeter. All indications seem to point towards the parish of Uttoxeter, so I think I would concentrate my search there to start off with. Good luck Janet Not sure why you're not getting results on Family Search. Must be your input criteria. If you search for births of George Walker 1790-1800 in Staffordshire, you initially get 300+ results. Most of these are later census records. Go to the bottom left and filter results by collections. If you restrict to births and christenings there are only 16 records. If you look at them carefully, you find many are duplicated. There are probably only about 8 actual individuals. I'd then check for locations closer to Creighton. You could the repeat the procedure for James and see if you find a match on parents and parishes.

Lin, I don't know the area. But it looks pretty remote on Google maps. It also didn't show up in Parish Finder as C of E. Not sure about Parish Locator? Lots of alternatives for Stephen and anybody else looking for parishes. Peter

Stephen, You might need somebody with local knowledge. I can't see any parish for Creighton on the Hugh Wallis site for IGI batches. So you'll need to establish if it had a church. It may be part of Uttoxeter. What was the source of your data? Have you tried looking on Family Search? You might also try the Family Search library catalogue and search for Creighton as a place name. That will tell what they have in any format. Fiche or films could then be ordered. Other options could be to check Genuki or simply Google "Creighton Parish Records" Peter in Sydney

There is a new site for IGI batch numbers http://www.archersoftware.co.uk/igi/index.htm It is more up to date than Hugh Wallis's site Mike Fisher in Droitwich my family tree http://mjfisher.tribalpages.com

Hi ...thank you for your quick reply. George Walker was in the 1851 and 1861 census for UTTOXETER, STF, ENGLAND I have looked in Family Search as you have stated and not found a GEORGE WALKER at all. He may have been bp elsewhere or the church record may not be readable. He Possibly has a brother named James Walker. I can not find his bapt either.

Hi Stephen I have an ancestor called John Rawlins, who was born in Creighton and baptised on 24 October 1773 in Uttoxeter parish church. He also married there, even though his wife was Leah Walker who was born in Marston Montgomery. Creighton to Marston is only about 10k, although it is across the county border into Derbyshire. He died in Stramshall, so never moved very far. Hope this helps. Barbara Harvey born Derbyshire but now of St Albans UK Stephen said >GEORGE WALKER b c1795, Creighton, STF, ENG.

Yes Peter is only a small Village in a very rural area, near Stramshall which is a larger Village & definetly does have a Parish Church.
