i am trying to trace the fmily of Thomas Robinson and his wife Elizabeth. From 1839 they lived at Stockton upon Tees and the parish records are great listing seven baptisms and even giving numbers so Grace baptised in 1842 was recorded as the sixth daughter Isobel the seventh Harriett the eigth and Margaret the 10th...i cannot find the ninth..There is an Elizabeth in 1837 according to the census return and many do not appear to survive very long though i havent searched for death certificates. But i cannot find the earlier children. The mother Elizabeth gives her place of birth as Knaresborough and i have found her baptism. The father gives his birth as both Leeds and Harrogate which seems more likely and i have probable or at least possible baptism their. i found a William Robinson the father in the 1841 census at Harrogate aged 55 but havent found him on the 1851 census...any help or thoughts would be appreciated

Not all of the baptisms were at St Thomas'.
Grace, for example, was baptised at Holy Trinity.
Haven't checked tham all, but some of the records have not only transcriptions but also images on FMP. Search using parish baptisms, and then enter Stockton on Tees in the place name box.

Hi Sandy,
You can only report on what you find.
Unfortunately, what FamilySearch say, and where an event actually took place, can sometimes be two very different places. Years ago they were saying that some baptisms took place in Earsdon (Tyneside) and they were actually for one of the churches in Great Yarmouth Norfolk.
As I said, FMP have some PR images (such as the one for Grace's baotism) and the PR page is clearly headed as Holy Trinity. I haven't checked the others, but people need to be aware that at least some of the FS baptisms have been indexed incorrectly.
Looking at the census records to see if an ecclesiastical parish is given (in the boxes across the top of the census image page) might help in establishing if some of the entries for St Thomas' were correct. Not necessarily, I have to add, because people often went to their nearest church - and the nearest church could be the one in the next street, which was also in the next parish.

Hi and thankyou...four of these are new to me...Grace in 1842 is recorded as the 6th daughter with Elizabeth appearing on the 1841 census giving a birth date of about 1837 so their should be earlier children..I havent found Thomas and Elizabeths marriage which could well be in Knaresborough or the surrounding area and as they give their ages in 1841 as 33 and 34 there was certainly time for other children to be born but where...
