Margaret... I saw that mentionned somewhere (maybe the Genuki site)... I can't understand where the earlier records have vanished to... maybe there was a particularly bad case of mouse, fire or flood! Thanks for posting, you've helped me and my friends with several queries.

There are some baptisms in Ulverston on the BVRI discs. Unfortunately they only start in 1813 and go to 1843.

Can anyone find the following?

William Clark(e) born 1810/1811 from age 40 on 1851c?
There don't appear to be many baptisms for Ulverston on the IGI, I am wondering if anyone knows where I might find them

I've looked on Hugh Wallis, and on the Genuki site, but there are no transcriptions there.

Ulverston had a population of 7000 in the mid 1800's so there must be a lot of records somewhere!

Many thanks.. this is the only gap in my tree on this level of generation now, so would be nice to find his baptism and parents!

(he later moved to Manchester, by the time of the censuses)
