Jane Linaker, b 1788Does anyone have any information on the family of Jane Linaker, baptised July 13 1788, who married William Gregson, b 1788, on July 10 1810 at St Cuthbert Church. My query is in regard to their children. William was the brother of James Gregson my gggrandfather. .
I have confirmed the following as children of William & Jane Gregson;
From the NMFHS one name extract of the St Cuthbert Parish Register:
Ellen bap Nov 25 1810
John bap Mar 21 1813
William bap Nov 8 1815
Hugh bap Nov 26 1815
John bap Jan 23 1818
Elizabeth Apr 25 1819
From IGI Parish/Chapel Records of baptisms at Churchtown Independent
Jane b Mar 14 1818, bap Apr 5 1818
Thomas b Oct 27 1820, bap Nov 18 1820
Margeret b Sep 11 1826, bap Oct 8 1826
Amos b May 14 1829, bap Jun 14 1829
William & Jane could have switched churches. William’s brother James’ last two children, both named Hugh, were baptised at Churchtown Independent.
However there are two puzzling points about the some of dates in the above info:
William 1815. It seems strange that there would be two baptisms in Nov 1815 in the same family, one for William on Nov 8th & another on the 26th for Hugh.
The same in 1818, John on Jan 23rd & Jane, on Apr 5th baptised different churches.
Is it possible there were two William & Jane Gregson’s, each with their own family? Any information will be appreciated. This message is also posted on the E – H forum, topic William Gregson, b 1788.
