Hi Janet

I'm repeating the message I sent to you via the Westfield site as our Eldridge families are from Battle originally and the info may be helpful to other Eldridge researchers.

" I've got Eldridge births from the GRO Indexes up to 1927 so far, and looking at 1919-1927 there are no further Eldridge birth registrations where the mother's maiden name is Wright.

Take a look at Robert Eldridge's excellent website
www2.hunterlink.net.au/~ddrge/genealogy/families.html
You'll find our Eldridge tree on there, including Emery's family. Bob is always keen to hear from Eldridge researchers and happy to receive new info and correct any mistakes. His e-mail address is at the bottom of the website page."

Best wishes
Caroline

Hello Janet

Alfred Allen Eldridge was baptised at Battle parish church on 6 April 1856, son of Emery Eldridge and Emily (maiden name Wood). Emery and Emily married at Battle parish church on 9 September 1843.

Emery Eldridge was baptised at Battle on 22 December 1822, son of Thomas Eldridge and Elizabeth (maiden name not known).

My gr gr grandfather is Samuel Eldridge (bap Battle 22 February 1790), brother of your Thomas Eldridge (bap Battle 10 March 1780). They were sons of William Eldridge and Sarah Potter.

So, we're distant cousins!

I have lots of info on Eldridges at Battle so happy to help further.

Kind regards
Caroline
