Hey folks.
I have found 4 entries on the IGI, and just wondered if any one could provide me with any more info from the parish records... I doubt there'll be much more as they are early-1800s.

Mary Lutwyche - 30/03/1807
Joseph Lutwyche - 14/06/1810
Thomas Lutwyche - 22/06/1812
William Lutwyche - 22/02/1814

All are children of John & Esther

Thank you in advance
Sean.

Hey, thanks for the quick reply.
I was gonna ask you about the others, but you beat me to it. Ha!
Well, all that has confirmed what I already know, which is good.
There is one bit of info that it is different to what I have and that's John's birth. I had him born on 25/07/1818, but you have 20/07/1818. So I can only imagine its an error on the IGI record.
But that's great anyway, thanks.

Would it be possible for you to find any marriages for the first three (Mary, Joseph & Thomas), please. I have marriages for the others already - none of which were at St Martins anyway. Oh, sorry, and Elizabeth aswell, please, if you don't mind. I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance. :)
Sean.
 
ok have checked the record for john again and the writing is very faded so difficult to read. it could be either 20th or 25th so cant help any more with that one.

sorry there are no marriages for the children at all on my records.
 
Oh, sorry, just one more thing regarding this, if that's OK??
Between Mary, Joseph, Thomas and Elizabeth, could there have been any early deaths?
It seems the family lived in the same area until about 1828, and thereafter any events occurred at St Phillips. So any events prior to that would have happened St Martin's, I would assume. And all thats left to find out about this family, regarding St Martin, would be any burials.

(I must get my lazy-bum up Central Library one day) Ha!

Thank for you very much for your help!
Sean.
 
i already looked at the burials but didnt think they were anything to do with your lot

there are only two listed both in 1836

richard lutwyche buried 7.8.1836 abode workhouse 68 yrs
thomas lutwyche buried 5.2.1836 abode workhouse 64? yrs

the only other thing ive found is that william and elizabeth lutwyche were having children baptized in the 1780`s when maybe your john could have been born, but its difficult to read many of them. i will try to have a look for john when i have time.
 
on igi there is a birth of john lutwyche to william and elizabeth on 9.8.1778 in old swinford worcester. perhaps they came to bham afterwards and had rest of children. anyway off to work now. all the best.
 
Yeah, I have Thomas and Richard. I have a gap of no St Martin burials, for the Lutwyche's, between 1807 and 1836, so I thought they might not have been transcribed yet, or something like that. Must have only been a couple then.

I think I have John's baptism already; he was baptised at St Phillips, though, in 1782. And his parents were John & Elizabeth. I think I have his sister too, baptised in 1793, also at St Phillips, but nothing in between 1782 & 1793. And I doubt there was any at St Martin's, either. I don't think there is any other entries for Lutwyche's that isn't on the IGI already for the late-1700s, early-1800s... just the extras that you can provide like witnesses and the residence, etc.

John's father, John, was baptised at St Martins though, in 1760 and his aunt Anne too in 1757. In fact, while I think about it, John's father was baptised Feb 1760, whose mother, Anna Maria, was buried Jan 1760, so could it have been possible she died giving birth? Would the entries mention anything like that? That is literally all I know regarding the Lutwyche's @ St Martin's. I think I may have to look elsewhere for any other info. What other churches are surrounding St Martin...? St Phillip? St George? St Mary? St Mark? St Paul?

I'm delving too much into this, sorry!!

Kind regards
Sean.
 
Yeah, I think maybe a bit further back my family came from Worcestershire. I'm not sure yet whether William & Elizabeth are related yet, altho I do have a William & Elizabeth in my tree, they were married in 1782 at Wootton Wawen - and I do have the 1780s baptisms at St Martin's attached to them. There's so much to try and fit together! And with an unusual name you think it'd be quite easy!
 
Hi,

I don't mean to bump up a very old thread but if it was to help you with your study, my grandparents carry the last name Lutwyche. It is probably of no concern but my granddad's mother lived until she was 102 but i'm not sure of her name. I will find out though :) His name is George and I think he had several brothers and sisters. He did have a twin called Billy. I hope it helps- no much I guess but it was worth a try :)
