Stephen Livermore, Essex

Going back to AnnCardiff's find...

Livermore
England, Essex Parish Registers, 1538-1900
christening: 16 Feb 1650 Essex,? England
parents: Stephen Livermore
name: Livermore
event: Christening
event date: 16 Feb 1650
event place: Essex, England
gender: Female
father: Stephen Livermore
digital folder number: 4298363

This is from the 'Parish register transcripts, 1646-1724
Parish Church of Wethersfield (Essex)

So I had a look at the registers, just clicking around, and there is alot of activity for the surname Livermore however the registers are in a terrible state :-( They have been badly damaged with bits of pages missing and/or faded.

So it is possible that if Stephen was baptised or married at Wethersfield the details may not be found......So sorry to be the bearer of possible bad news.

Wethersfield to Felstead is 6.7 miles so maybe Mary lived between them and they married there?? Fingers crossed.

But, of course, the Wethersfield Livermores may have nothing to do with your Livermores :-(

Have you thought of looking at other sources? From my 'crib sheet' records that you could look for at this period...

Deeds (from 11c)
Feet of Fines (from late 12c to early 19c)
Manor Court Rolls (from 13c)
Inquisition Post Mortem (from early 13c to early 17c)
Lay Subsidies (from early 13c to end of 17c)
Quarter Sessions (from mid/late 14c)
Probates (from mid/late 14c)
Chancery Proceedings (from late 14c to late 19c)
Visitations (from 16c to early 17c)
Apprentices and Freemen (from 16c)
School and University Registers (from 16c)
Marriage Licences (from 16c)
Parish Registers (from early/mid 16c)
Bishops Transcripts (from late 16c to mid/late 19c)
Non Conformist Records (from 17c)
Jewish Records (from 17c)
Quaker Records (from mid 17c)
Poor Law (from mid 17c to early/mid 19c)
Roman Catholic Records (from mid/late 17c)

Some obviously won't apply to your research but I just copy and pasted the relevant period!
It would be worth checking the Essex RO online catalogue (SEAX) to see what they hold.

Good luck

Interesting and proves why, if possible, one should look at the actual register entry....

AnnCardiff's find of Abraham Christening: 30 SEP 1716 Felstead, Essex, England

The register actual gives...

Abraham son of Abraham Livermore and Mary his wife.
Bap. 7th Bor. 30th

So looking at the entries it is clear that he was acually born on the 30th September and Baptised on the 7th October.

I can see why the transcriber was confused!

Doesn't help with search for Stephen and Mary though, sorry.

***Edit***

I have just checked the burial entry for Stephen in 1721 and it just states

30 December 1721 Stephen Livermore was buried.
As the other entries state if it was a son/daughter then I think it is safe to say he was an adult.

Do you have this?.....
On the same page

23 February 1722
An infant of the widow Livermores was buried.

There is no baptism for this infant in the register.
How sad if it is Mary losing both husband and new born within a couple of months.

On Familysearch there´s a submitted record for Stephen Livermore born abt 1788 Felstead Essex. (submitted by a researcher, not from parish records.)
You could try the Essex records site (SEAX). Used to be free to search, but I think it´s recently become pay per view.
Have the same problem myself with early Essex records.They are not well recorded.

*** Sorry. The date should read 1688 not 1788.

My 6x great grandfather Stephen Livermore was buried in Felsted, Essex on 30th December 1721. His wife's name was Mary. I can't find Mary's family name or when/where either Stephen or Mary were born.

Can anyone help please?
