James Spring married Lovey Cherry on 5 Aug 1803 at Houghton Conquest, Bedford, England. James was born abt. 1778 and Lovey abt 1782. (From: Bedfordshire Parish Records 1539 -1812. . .on film) Lovey Cherry was born 5 Apr 1782 and christened 20 Oct 1782 at Houghton Conquest, Bedford, England. Parents: Titus Cherry and Hannah. (From: 1539 - 1812. . .on the same film) Dau Eliza was baptized 29 Nov 1808 at (Villata de Bedeford) Wilstead, Bedfordshire Son John was baptized 17 Oct 1810 at (Villata de Bedeford) Wilstead, Bedfordshire Dau Amy was baptized 13 Oct 1812 at (Villata de Bedeford) Wilstead, Bedfordshire (Baptisms from: Parish Registers of Wilstead, 1593 - 1812) Notes: 1) From a previous message from you John, I learned that Wilshamstead and Wilstead must be synonymous. I was glad I didn't have to figure that out today. 2) I didn't see a record of the other 2 children of James Spring and Lovey Cherry (Hannah and Lovey) mentioned by Mrs. Blosse. Both of those names would certainly make sense for the couple: One child named after her mother and one after her. 3) We hoped that James Spring would match up with the record I talked about earlier. Note that the 'about' birth date (1778) in the marriage record is slightly different from the baptism registry of James as the son of Thomas and Sarah. (That was 1784) 4) I don't know if Villata de Bedeford is the name of the church or if it means "village of Bedfordshire" or what? Do one of you know? Doesn't matter. Just curious. I have an original copy of John Spring's 1901 obituary giving his age; it fits. Bob Spring has a copy of his death certificate listing his parents' names. Who could have made the name Lovey Cherry up? And all the information I found today fits. Bobby, I think that you had another reference, as well. I don't know what more evidence we need than what we already have. Are you satisfied that we are on the right track?
