Can anyone help with this missing ancestor?
Rach(a)el Radford/Redford/Ratford/Retford was baptised in 1786 in North Cerney, Glos, daughter of Moses and Rachel. Her father was buried at North Cerney in 1826 and her mother at Bibury, Glos in 1829.
Rachel married Richard Mills, a shepherd/labourer in 1810 in North Cerney and I know of 6 children, all baptised in Gloucestershire - James (1811 North Cerney), Elizabeth (1812 Ampney Crucis), John (1816 Rodmarton), Mary Ann (1821 Bibury), William (1824 Stow on the Wold) and Rachael (1827 Stow on the Wold).
Richard Mills is buried at Lower Swell, Glos 27th Nov 1828. I know the whereabouts and fates of James, Elizabeth and John and they give no clues to Rachel's. I don't know anything of Mary Ann and William after their baptisms but the young Rachael is buried at Stow on the Wold in 1837 aged 10, unfortunately before registration. I can't find a death, burial or remarriage for Rachel or see any likely candidate for her living under another surname.
