Whilst looking at my Witherall branch of the family tree, I noticed that my 4 x great grandfather states his birth as being in 1821 / 1822 at Beedon on the 1861 & 1871 censuses, then from 1881 he states his birth as being in 1819 / 1821 / 1822 at Chieveley, which is a short distance from Beedon.
I have given a baptism record from the IGI for a Thomas Wetheral who was born to a Hannah Wetheral on 1st july 1821 at Beedon.
Working on this, I have found on the IGI, a Hannah Wetherell who was born on 13 April 1797 at Beedon to Thomas & Jane Wetherell.
Now I have found other children born to Thomas & Jane Witherell / Wetherell:
2. RACHAEL WITHERELL - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 21 NOV 1790 Beedon, Berkshire, England
HANNA WETHERELL - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 23 APR 1797 Beedon, Berkshire, England
NAOMI WETHERELL - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 20 MAR 1800 Beedon, Berkshire, England
RICHARD WETHERELL - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: JUL 1788 Beedon, Berkshire, England
But can only find one wedding between a Thomas Witherell and a Jane and that took place in Nortumberland:
THOMAS WEATHERALL
Male
Marriages:
Spouse: JANE PELLINGTON
Marriage: 07 DEC 1802 Christ Church, Tynemouth, Northumberland, England
Now my concern is that this isn't the right couple for two reasons:
1. It's almost the other end of the country to where the children were born.
2. It's after the birth of the last child.

Nothing comes up when I search.
Am now looking for a marriage between a John Witherell & an Ann sometime between 1765 and 1768 as their first child appears to have been born in 1769.
