I am trying to find the birth of Thomas Tindall. He was an agricultural labourer. I found a baptism 9/1/1837 parents William and Elizabeth. However I cannot find a birth for Thomas and info. on William and Elizabeth if this is the right Thomas.
I have found various Thomas Tindall's from 1833 - 1837 which could be him but not sure. I know he married Annie Toin and had daughter Minnie Gertrude Tindall. I have now reached stalemate trying to find Thomad and his parents and any siblings.
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you for reading this,
Vanessa

You won't find a birth, because he managed to get baptized (and thus born) before registration started -- later in 1837. Dang, eh?

The one you refer to (Tindal in the IGI) was baptized in Bottesford, Lincolnshire. Huh. He doesn't match up, parent-wise, with anybody in the 1841.

He does match up with this one in 1851:


Name: Thomas Tindal
Age: 14
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1837
Relation: Son
Father's Name: William
Mother's Name: Charlotte
Gender: Male
Where born: Ashby, Lincolnshire, England
Civil Parish: Messingham
County/Island: Lincolnshire
Country: England
Registration district: Glanford Brigg
Sub-registration district: Winterton
ED, institution, or vessel: 20
Household schedule number: 55

Household Members: Name Age
Charlotte Tindal 40
Edward Tindal 4
Elizabeth Tindal 16
George Tindal 19
Thomas Tindal 14
William Tindal 46
William Tindal 7

-- Bottesford and Ashby are the same thing, I'd say, from looking at Google maps.

Remarriage by William (producing the two youngest children)?


Name: William Tindall + Charlotte Chapman on same page
Year of Registration: 1842
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Glanford Brigg
County: Lincolnshire
Volume: 14
Page: 601


Huh. That 1851 William matches up with this one in 1841 (and with place of birth for Thomas in the IGI):

Name: William Tindale
Age: 35
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1806
Gender: Male
Where born: Lincolnshire, England
Civil Parish: Bottesford
Hundred: Manley (Eastern Division)
County/Island: Lincolnshire
Country: England
Registration district: Glanford Brigg
Sub-registration district: Barton

Household Members: Name Age
George Tindale 9
Mary Tindale 35
Thomas Tindale 4 <<<
William Tindale 35


... so ... three marriages??

No death for Elizabeth 1837-1839 ... but she could have died in childbirth when Thomas was born, e.g.

This is useful:


Name: Toin
Year of Registration: 1863
Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar
District: Glanford Brigg
County: Lincolnshire
Volume: 7a
Page: 815


but the groom on the page is Thomas Tindale and the original does say Ann Toin.

The marriage cert would give you his father's name, no?

(And you should submit a correction with her full name to FreeBMD!)
