I am looking for a Hester or Esther Ady/Adey/Adye who married David Smith in 1737 in Uley.

I have found an Esther Adey baptised on June 3, 1716 in Uley, daughter of Daniel and Sarah on Ancestry, but there is no image of the film.

I also found an Esther Ady baptised on April 30, 1719, daughter of Daniel and Sarah. This came up as Uley when I did the search, but on looking at the image it is in the Wooton Register.

A search of Uley gives records but no images and so I wonder if anyone can help me with where baptism of 1716 Uley would be.

I'm hoping for a clue as to which Esther it might be. Or even of a death of the first Esther, indicating that the Daniel and Sarah might be the same people.

Thank you.

The Uley Parish Register from 1668 to 1798 has partly been transcribed on GlosGen/Freereg

there are only two ADY(E) entries

burials

Hester, ye daughter of William ADEY bur March 2j (it's at the beginning so assume the year is 1668)

and

William s of Daniel & Sarah ADY laid in the ground and would not stop for the Minister - buried 10 March 1712

Checking with Freereg

Mary ADY: christened 13 February 1699/00 - parents Daniel (occupation: Weaver) & Sarah

James: 30 November 1702 - father: Daniell

William ADY : christened 24 February 1706/07 - parents: Daniell & Hannah

and

Thomas ADY : christened 4 April 1712 - parents: Daniel & Sarah

a

Daniel ADY married Bridget CREWE 18 June 1718: St Thomas Wickwar

Looking at the Church of Latter Day Saints:

Daniel & Bridget ADY were having childen christened at Wootton St Mary - with an Esther ADY - christened 30 April 1719 - with mother's name Sarah (? should this be Bridget and was an error - or ?

Gloucestershire Marriage Index CD pre 1800

Daniell ADY of Wotton Edge married Sarah MOORE - 1 May 1684 (at Yate)
Daniel ADEY of Wotton married Martha BLAGDEN of Wotton (at Wotton) - 24 January 1693

On Ancestry it is possible to find the page in the Uley register where the 1716 baptism should be. Search for the marriage of Jonathan SMYTH and Mary ROBBINS, at Uley June 30th 1716. There is this entry,

Esther the daughter of Daniel and Sarah ADEY baptised June the 3rd 1716.

This was a time when baptisms, marriages and burials seem to have been recorded on the same page. Later on they were listed separately.

NB I've edited this post because I originally said there was no entry. I'm now off to Specsavers.
