Can anybody find this family on the parish records?

I am particularly interested in Sue (Susan) but any of them would be good!

I have got the info from the WorldOneTree on ancestry... I have searched for every single entry for Swaithes in the censuses and BMD info tonight, but I didn't find this family.

I know 2 of the sons appear to have emigrated to the USA, but the parents seemed to stay in the UK at least.

Many thanks for any info found in advance :)

ID: I223
Name: Thomas (John?) SWAITHES
Sex: M
Birth: 1846 in England
Death: 1891 in England
Note: Thomas Swaithes and Mary ann Sayre were farmers near Worchester , England. (I assume this means WORCESTER)


Marriage 1 Mary Ann SAYRE b: 1848 in England
Married: WFT Est. 1864-1885
Children
Thomas SWAITHES b: WFT Est. 1866-1889 (EMIGRATED)

James Joseph moved to live in London until his emigration in 1883. I believe Susan also moved to London, so I would expect baptisms in Worcestershire, but any other records could be anywhere!
