Exclamation

Oooooh!!!!! *very very excited emoticon*

I have to explain that the way the CD works, you look a name up in the index and it gives you the church and date and parents' names, but then you have to go to the other section which is organised by church and date, to see the occupation and residence. So since I was only looking for Elizabeths yesterday (there are lots and lots of Saunders families), I never saw this:

23rd Sep 1827 St Philip & St Jacob - George Augustus, age 1 month, parents John and Ann Saunders, abode St Philip, occupation Coal Merchant!!!!

Shame it doesn't give their exact address, but I'll see if there are any more for that family...

Hmm, Mary Ann's (1829) father is a Brewer, residence just given as St Philip again. But we should be able to find out something about George Augustus, shouldn't we?

Kate, there are various George Augustus b in Bristol after 1837 but one probably died (1847) and another one is awol in 1851 (reg Q1 1851). I can't see any sign of the original 1827 man.

Bristol & Avon FHS Bristol Diocese Baptismal Registers Vols 1-7 Index & Transcripts 1813 - 1837. It's worth looking at what they have for sale - go on their website and click on "Shop".

Oh dear, hope he didn't die young. I haven't got the burials CD, I'm afraid.

I've seen Selina and John (marine captain) and Anne in 1841. (for what it's worth!)

If this is out of the box......forget it.

There is a George Augustus Saunders (age 4) in 1881 in Monmouthshire. He is the nephew of Robert Blair (b Scotland) and Eliza H G Blair (b Scotland).

They are living in Brewery House and Robert is a brewer.
