ARC TBC............Richard Mills born abt 1811, Old Swinford

Post by sp1 »

This Richard Mills:

There are two baptisms on the IGI, both submitted, unfortunately- does anyone have the Old Swinford register for this period ?

10 Dec 1811
27 Dec 1812
Both as children of Thomas Mills & Sarah

Are these Baptisms really there? (The IGI is not infallible- so they might be).

This 1851 census entry seems to confirm that Richards parents were Thomas & Sarah Mills

William Yeomans Head born Halesowen
Emma Yeomans Wife F 28 Oldswinford, Worcestershire
David Yeomans Brother M 16 Halesowen, Worcestershire
Charlotte Mills Wife'S Sister F 17 Oldswinford, Worcestershire
Eliza Mills Niece F 5 Wordsley, Worcestershire
Harry Mills Nephew M 3 Wordsley, Worcestershire

Emma (Mills) Yeomans, and Charlotte Mills were both bapt at Old Swinford, children of Thomas & Sarah, and as we know, Harry Mills, Solicitor, born 1848, Kingswinford, was the son of Richard & Mary, so Richard b abt 1811, must be their brother!

Thomas Mills and Sarah (Howells, m Old Swinford) had children from about1811 down to the1830's - there were lots, and I have the baptisms.

Both are on CD Transcribed by BMSGH
As usual the first child died and the next child was named with the same name ? :(
