I just wish I could find Nathaniel's (Nathanael's) baptism or burial.

Was the one you tried parishmouse.com or parishmouse.co.uk? I just now clicked on one of those "repeat the search with the omitted results included" links and it showed me this one that gives me "404 Not Found" and "was not found on this server." So maybe this is the one for you.

No that doesn't work either, but it doesn't matter. I have the info I need now.

Okey-doke.

Found this on the Gloucestershire Archives site -
Memorandum of conviction of Nathaniel Hale of Rangeworthy, beer retailer and shopkeeper, for the crime of possessing two defective weights and a defective pair of scales in his shop, dated 9 May 1835 [printed form]
Date 1835

Perhaps he sold hats and beer??

[Sue from Southend]

And still with Gloucestershire Archives a Nathaniel Hale of Rangeworthy appears on the Overseers Records in 1837 and 1838. There may be more details if you contact the Archives.

http://ww3.gloucestershire.gov.uk/ge...y/Results.aspx

And if you look at the entry dated 1769 it's for a Nathaniel Hale of Kingswood where your one married....


Edit : Flower Hale also has Overseers records in 1838 http://ww3.gloucestershire.gov.uk/ge...y/Results.aspx
She would appear to be child. Did they name any of their children Flower or perhaps the Nathaniel in the Overseers records is their son and she's his daughter??

I don't have children called Nathaniel or Flower but I have very little info concerning that family.
I did email the archives last night to ask about purchasing copy microfiche, I do have a reader, no reply as yet.

Don't want to appear dim, but what are Overseers records?

[Sue from Southend]

This link describes Overseers Records pretty well. It's the second item down.

Sometimes these sorts of records are a mine of information giving names of parents, place of birth etc. Another time it could just be the bare bones!

I've just emailed the Archives to ask about ref P244 OV 3/2/4/31

Both Nathaniel and Flower are named in that and are from Rangeworthy.

Thanks for your help Sue.

[Margaret in Burton]

Had a reply from the archives and have asked for a quote for a copy. This is their email to me.

I can tell you that P244 OV 3/2/4 contains Removal Orders from the parish of Painswick. This means that Nathaniel and Flower were living in Painswick, but were not originally from there. It is likely they were claiming money from the church under the Poor Law, if they were not from that parish originally, they could be sent back to where they came from.

The quote will take up to 10 working days.

Wasn't even 10 hours lol

£6 + £1 P&P

Will be sending off for that.
