Just flagging up my surname interests!
I have traced my tree back to my Greatx4 grandparents Charles Kisby and Sarah Kisby nee Baines, who were married in Whittlesey in 1809 (witnessed by Richard Baines and the local clerk). Charles died aged 56 in 1829, Sarah died in 1864 aged 79.
I have been unable to find a baptism in the surrounding parishes for Charles ca.1773. There are plenty of Kisby's in the immediate Whittlesey area, maybe his parents forgot to baptise him! He was possibly the son of John Kisby and Mary Kizby(sic) nee Watson who married in Whittlesey in 1764. A Charles Kisby was also baptised in Littleport in 1780.
Sarah (born ca.1785) may well have been the dau of William and Susan Baines, whose dau Sarah was baptised in Whittlesey in 1791. A Richard Baines (see marriage above) was buried in Whittlesey aged 51 in 1812, so he may have been an uncle or maybe even Sarah's dad).
Would be interested to hear from any other people who have an interest in these surnames.
