Hi I'm a new member and I hope I am posting this correctly.

On 6/5/1798 Charles the son of Jacob and Ann Newth ( Nuith according to PRs ) was baptised at Wootton under Edge.

This is an ancestor of someone I have met and she is stuck on that baptism, my interest being the Newths of Dursley who I am decended from.

I have some Dursley PRs and I can't see a Jacob baptised or married there in the correct time frame so I suspect we aren't related but I am trying to help her go further back.

She knows this baptism is correct as she has Charles army records which show his date and place of birth.

I wonder if anyone can find a marriage for Jacob and Ann and any other information about them. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

Ancestry does have a Marriage

Jacob NAITH - to Ann POOL at Bristol, 24 April 1796
