Looking for advice on what to do next. I've researched the family tree back to a man called John Tadhunter, born 08 March 1793 and baptised 25 March 1793. I found the DOB and Baptism date in the Watermans Bindings after a trip to the Guildhall Library in London. It listed his baptism in Greenwich. |

If you can get to the London Metropolitan Archives in London .which is just over the road from where the FRC was then they may have the Greenwich records, The only big church I can remember is St Alpheges Church at Greenwich |

Parish records for Greenwich are also kept in the grounds of the Woolwich Arsenal Museum. If that's any nearer for you. |

Im in Croydon so both are easy enough i should think. Would there be any information like names of parents? The funny thing is, anytime i do a search on the surname tadhunter i find very little... is that odd? |

Had another look at that pallots and i think it says St Jno Horseleydown which would be St Johns Chuch Southwark |
