Hello Will, I have a transcript of the St Martin, Tipton PR. C1736-1812 where the surname SKELTON is variously spelled SKELDIN, SKELDING, SKELDON, SKELETON, SKELTON - the surname SHELDON is particularly prevalent, which could be a possible corruption of SKELDON. Afraid I cannot see a baptism for a Thomas SKELTON + vars circa 1790 at St Martin.

My earliest connection is Thomas SKELTON (b.c. 1790 - d. after 1820) who married Sarah BUTLER (1793-?). His son was Thomas SKELTON, born about 1820 in Tipton. It might be that Thomas and Sarah were not married... The family subsequently moved to Derbyshire and, in my line Lincolnshire thence the Isle of Wight, but its origins seem to be in Staffordshire and any help would be most appreciated!

Hi Peter Theodosia died in 1842, so there is no possibility that we would know her place of birth for certain, but I am sure it was Rusthton Spencer. You say in your mail that Charles Clarke lived in Liverpool, How do we know that?. Charles Clarke died in 1822 at Congleton, aged 37. Its certainly getting interesting. Thankyou Peter for all the help, I very much appreciate it and Janet as well.

John, Google "Hugh Wallis" and check the batches for Rushton Spencer. It looks like three successive generations of unmarried women. It starts with Sarah born about 1740. She has Elizabeth 1758 and Mary 1767. Mary then has Theodosia 1789. Unless a diligent curate has noted the father in the PR's, we will never know. These are the only baptisms in Rushton Spencer batches and there are no Cotterill marriages. Actually on a second look at an earlier batch there is a 1733 baptism of Sarah Cotterall to Frances Cotterall & Sarah. And Francis looks to be born 1700 to John & Mary. On the new Family Search site enter batcn numbers C039492 and C039493 in the Search By Batch Number box that opens just above the Search Icon. Peter

Janet, The Booth duo in harmony again. Just so people don't get confused we are on opposite sides of the globe. We share the same surname but don't have a link. Happy to have a possibility proven or disproven by further research. That's why they are called theories. Given that we now know Charles Clark lived in Liverpool it may bring into contention the two Cotterell / Clarke marriages in Cheshire and Lancashire around that time. Were they relatives of Theodosia or did she perhaps marry using a second given name. Given that 1841 census shows both Mary and Theodosia it does give support to Ruston Spencer birth and the illegitimate theory. Sorry, I don't have time to check out all the possibilities. But we've given John plenty to work with. If she is alive in 1851, you should get her exact birthplace. Peter

Hi Listers, I'm trying to track down my SKELDON/SKELTONs in Staffordshire: does anyone have anybody of this name in their tree?

<<snipped>> your Charles and Theodosia were having children in Astbury. <<snipped>> Um. If Astbury is involved, I would not be at all surprised if the marriage record had got lost. The marriage records there are somewhat idiosyncratic and even though BTs were kept, I personally think there's a good chance any such record could be lost. Adrian B

Hello John, I don't think that the marriage Peter found for Charles Cross CLARKE & Theodosia PURFECT is your Charles and Theodosia as according to IGI Family Search they seem to have had several children in Ramsden-Crays, Essex during the same period that your Charles and Theodosia were having children in Astbury. Further to what Jan found for you, i.e. the marriage of Theodosia to William CLAYTON in 1824, FMP have the actual BT burial record image of a Charles CLARK at Astbury on 1 January 1822, Mail Coach Guard, abode Liverpool, aged 37 which would fit in very well with the date of Theodosia's remarriage. They also have the BT burial entry at Astbury on 9 October 1842 of Theodocia wife of Wm CLAYTON & relict of Charles CLARK, aged 53. 1841 census of Astbury (HO107/119/11, folio 13, pages 19/20) shows: William CLAYTON 40 Silk Weaver Born in county yes Teodocia do 60 Silk Winder no Mary COTTRELL 75 Silk Winder no which tends to support the baptism that Peter found for you at Rushton Spencer, which by the way is not too far from Astbury. Not that this helps to find the marriage of Charles & Theodosia I'm afraid but perhaps Rushton Spencer would be a good place to start. Janet I am trying to find the marriage of a Charles Clarke to a Theodosia Cotterel in about 1815. Theodosia was born in Staffordshire in 1789, Charles was fro Congleton in Cheshire. They had children in Congleton.

John, I've just posted a reply on Yorksgen to your question about using the new IGI site. Try some of those suggestions. I'm not sure of the coverage of old Parish Records for Staffordshire on IGI. You can never be certain that all records have been a captured. I found a possible 1789 baptism for Theodosia Cotterel who looks like an illegitimate daughter of Mary Cotterel. I couldn't find a match for the marriage using the exact names given by you so I tried a variety of combinations. You'll need to do this yourself. There were Clarke / Cotterell marriages in Lancashire and Cheshire but bride's given name is wrong. So I left off her surname and found an 1813 marriage in Essex between Charles Crofs Clarke and Theodosia Purfect. Is it's possible she changed her name, or did Mary marry a Mr Perfect and she is using the name of her step father? I can find no birth for Thesodia Purfect. Peter

John Not STS but I checked the Bertram Merrill and Hartley Marriage Indexes for Cheshire , pre 1837, on the off chance, with no luck. Happy Hunting Helen Downunder I am trying to find the marriage of a Charles Clarke to a Theodosia Cotterel in about 1815. Theodosia was born in Staffordshire in 1789, Charles was fro Congleton in Cheshire. They had children in Congleton. Its a bit of a long shot that they got married in Staffordshire.
