Allcock/Elcock ancestors
I am tracing my ancestors Thomas ALLCOCK/ELCOCK (About 1765-1845) and Susanna HARRIS (About 1770-1852) and can't find their baptism records. The earliest record I can find online is their marriage at St. Leonard's, Broseley on 6 December 1790. Their first daughter Ann is baptized in Broseley in 1791, but the next 2 boys are baptized in St. Mary Magdalene, Bridgenorth: Samuel in 1792 and Thomas in 1797. The family moved to Merthyr Tydfil, Wales by 1799, where the elder Thomas Allcock worked as a water agent. I am hoping someone with local knowledge can help me find Thomas and Susanna's baptism records since I am in New York City.

Hello Adele- both surnames Elcock and Harris are of interest to me as is Wales. I think we have a connection somehow. I'm attaching a picture of a gravestone which may light some bulbs. It is in Porthcawl, Newton
