Anyone on Ancestry please?

[Glen in Tinsel Knickers]

I've come across a pile of records suggesting a couple had numerous children and some Ancestry trees seem to feature the names associated with the couple but I can't access Ancestry again. I'm wondering if anyone can have a look at them please?

The following records come from family search, I believe the Ancestry trees suggest the children are all born to Edward Raby and Elizabeth Maltson, I'm just a bit concerned about the date range and gaps between children though freereg has a burial record of Elizabeth Raby, wife of Edward, d 1797 aged 57 and a marriage record for 2 Jun 1761. Those two records make me doubt the 1755 christening of Ann Raby below.


Ann Raby
England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975
christening: 20 November 1755 WRAGBY, LINCOLN, ENGLAND
father: Edward Raby
mother: Elizabeth
If correct this predates the 1761 marriage and mum would have been around 15 years old and known as Elizabeth Maltson

George Raby
England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975
christening: 4 January 1779 Wragby, Lincoln, England
residence: Wragby, Lincoln, England
father: Edward Raby
mother: Elizabeth

Thomas Raby
England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975

Elizabeth Raby

father: Edward Raby
mother: Elizabeth

Mary Raby
England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975
christening: 30 May 1776 Wragby, Lincoln, England
residence: Wragby, Lincoln, England
father: Edward Raby
mother: Elizabeth

Frances Raby

The 1755 baptism is there in the image of Wragby PRs on Lincstothepast
"Ann ye Daughter of Edward and Elizabeth Raby November 20th [born] 3rd"

Plus (again on the PR image on Lincstothepast)
31 Mar 1755 Edward Raby m Elizabeth Petch after banns

I'm really scratching around now, I have three family lines in the area, Raby, Espin and Chambers, they all seem to marry into the other lines a few times and only use a smallish number of forenames, varied probate records don't help, "to my niece Ann" appears three times in one will but it seems it's three different nieces. I think the 1755 bapt is likely a different part of the family.



I'm also trying to pin down a birth for Edward, I think I have his burial which helps

County Lincolnshire

The following would therefore appear to be the parents marriage

Do you use Lincstothepast, Glen? The Wragby records are reasonably legible.

Sorry the Irish PR images have just come on line and I'm otherwise engaged now!!!

Glen the Wragby records are all free to search on Lincs to the Past.
I would not worry at all what is on ancestry tree's, if you do your own research you KNOW it is correct.
Sorry Anne I see you beat me to it!!
