Has anyone got access to the Parish Records for Thame? Looking for parents names on the birth/christening record of Louisa Bonner 1837.

It's in the civil registration system!

Births Sep 1837
BONNER Louisa Thame 16 92

You'd be best off ordering the certificate from GRO - more informative than a baptism record.

The 1851 census suggests that the parents were William Bonner, bricklayer, born Thame and Louisa, born Moreton.

HO 107/1726 f 268 p 34

However, you still need the birth certificate to confirm this.

The Oxon Marriage Index shows a William BONNER marrying a Louisa HOUNSLOW at Thame on 5 Oct 1836.

You will need the parish register for that!

Thanks a lot for your help - the marriage is of great interest and I will be ordering the birth certificate.
