Hi , yes I have asked someone about the price for a search and it is a ridiculous price not only do I have to pay them by the hour they want other incidentals , petrol etc . It is a business , so I can see why they charge . But I will try to make time , as I need to establish William 's Birth . But thanks anyway

Hi , I was wondering if you have any idea where either Jane Bailey or Thomas chamberlain were born . Esther's mother and father ? Thanks

Thomas Chamberlain married Jane Bailey 22 Aug 1798 at Ormskirk.

Have you got their burials?

I'm sorry , no I haven't .

So did the three children stay in the same area or did any of them move to a different place? (might help with the parents burials)

Yes his daughter Esther stayed around the same area , I think is son Edward died age 15 . I have found a few deaths in Lancashire on family search . A few were around the Halsall area around 1841 which isn't too far away from Ormskirk and some in Wigan . He he was 65 , on the one at Halsall , with a Elizabeth age 45 ,and a john age fifteen . I don't know what other children Jane bailey and him had besides Edward and Esther . Thanks

There are these two burials at St Peter and St Paul, Ormskirk, on Lancs OPC:

Burial 2 Dec 1807 Isabel Chamberlain, daughter of Thos Chamberlain of Ormskirk
Burial same day - Jonathan Chamberlain, son of Thos Chamberlain of Ormskirk

And this is the image on ancestry

It actually says "Jonathan & Isabel Sn & Dr of Thos Chamberlian from Orms."

I can't find baptisms for them to check whether their mother was Jane. Maybe they died before they could be baptised.

There's a bap for a Peter Chamberlain in Ormskirk in 1811, mother Jane, no father recorded. I wondered if Thomas had died/left between 1807 and 1811 but I can't find anything to help with that.
