This is probably the death record for Sophia Creery nee Sturges:

CREERY, SOPHIA 52
GRO Reference: 1842 M Quarter in SAINT LUKE, MIDDLESEX Volume 02 Page 208

Dau Christiana was buried aged 14 months in 1828.

The first Joseph has "child dead" alongside his baptism record.

I can't find what happened to Joseph aged 11 in 1841. He is not the Joseph who was buried in April 1871 aged 34 (too young really) as that man was born in Yorkshire.

No sign of a Sophia Sturges born around 1790.

Sophia Sturges married in 1807 so maybe born a few years before 1790. The witnesses on her marriage record are John Sturges, Eliza Sturges, Mary Sturges. Shame they aren't less common names!

Ooh, but on Christina's baptism there is a column Grandparents mother's side. I hadn't actually looked at the column heading before. So Sophia's parents are John and Ann Sturges.

Same on Joseph's baptism.

Lol I saw that yesterday, but had forgotten by today

I agree that she may have been born a little earlier.
