Thomas Pinchbeck born circa 1794 Atherstone or Athestone Warks. On 1851 is living at 82 GT Kings St Birmingham and surname appears as Pinchbeek

Which parishes cover the above?

Hello Dolly,
The parish church for Atherstone was St Peters, Mancetter. That is the correct spelling & has nothing to do with Manchester!
The IGI has a couple of non conformist chapels in Atherstone represented covering mid-1700's and 1795- abt 1815.
By about 1850 St Mary's in Atherstone itself began to be used for Cof E.
Pinchbeck/Pinchback was a fairly usual name then but I don't think it is found in the town today.

Don't get waylaid by records for Atherstone on Stour, also in Warwickshire.
I have access to Atherstone records if you need anything.

Thank you Valerie

This family is so confusing!

Thomas & Emma had their first children in Nottingham starting around 1824 then SKS found them in 1851 in B'ham, where I knew that they had gone because one of their sons was listed with his sister & her husband in 1881 his birthplace was Birmingham, in 1851 they list 2 sons born Birmingham. I have searched the IGI for non-conformist chapels in Atherstone but can't find a Thomas baptism for a date that would fit.

The only marriage that I have found that is a possibility is for Thomas Pinchbeck to Elizabeth Ball in Aston 12th November 1821. In 1851 Elizabeth Pinchbeck gives her place of birth as "Erdington", so I don't know if I have found the correct marriage.
