Watsons of Warwickshire/Northants

The earliest Watson that I have in my tree is Elizabeth Watson b1796, presumably Northamptonshire and her son Matthew Watson b 1816 Wellingborough, Northamptonshire. In 1841 they were living at 5 Bridge Lane, Hammersmith, London.

I haven't been able to track them back further than this yet.

Any connection?

Hmm.... I can't find a link at the moment, but there may be one. I have lots of Elizabeth Watsons, but none with that DOB. Did she have the baby out of wedlock then? I don't have any Matthews either. My Watsons tend to be on the Warwickshire/Northants border - so Southam area of Warwickshire and Daventry area of Northants.

Sarah

Thanks for checking. The 1841 census doesn't help when it comes to marital status so I don't know if Mathew was born in wedlock or not. Elizabeth had died (presumbaly) by the time of the 1851 census - at least I haven't been able to find her yet.

I'm hoping to get hold of the parish records for Wellingborough and see if I can find them there.

Thanks again

Derrick
