I probably started 10 minutes before you as you are normally faster than me!

Well, hello everyone! I only went away to make a cup of tea, & here you all were!
Thank you all - I won't reply individually ,if its ok with you?
So, an amateur researcher told me Thomas was b Uxbridge,& I found that credible as his first three or four children were bap. at the Providence Independent Chapel there.
Christiana was b Holborn, central London, but I don't know when or where they married.
Their eldest child was b 1806, so given T

Sorry - finger slippage! Was going to add - given T & C's ages, I would say marriage was abt 1804/5.
I wondered about Sarah & Isaac - note they have a son Robert (family name?) and dates fit, too.

There is the baptism of a child of Isaac and Sarah Headland on FamilySearch: Ann 30 Aug 1778 at Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, and the burial of another child of theirs, John, 5 Sep 1781 at Denham, Buckinghamshire. The dates would fit with the couple who married about 23 years before 1800, but it means Thomas could have been born anywhere!

Findmypast has the baptism of a Thomas Headland at St Margaret, Westminster, in 1793. I haven't got a sub to view the image, but using the free search on the US site shows a year of birth of 1792 and that the name Sarah features somewhere in the record.
Edit - someone on ancestry has this Thomas in their tree with a father called William and a different year of death, so I don't think this is your Thomas.

Another question for you, Vita - how do you know Christiana's maiden name was Atkinson, please?

The Non Conformist record of T & C's children's bap. shows "Maternal grandfather, Thomas Atkinson."
I don't think it could have been 1792/3 Thomas, unless he was a late baptism, as it would make him only abt 13 at time of 1st child's birth.
