Notes:

This John may well be same as the one born 1751 baptising children at Maxstoke in 18011/12/1999 This assumption that the John Bolstridge and Mary who were baptising children at Maxstoke en-bloc in 1801 is the John born at Astley in 1770 is extremely suspect. This was part of Norman Dudley's research but he has failed to examine the Bolstridge activity in the Meriden Corley Maxstoke areas as a possible source. These are entered under various spellings ie Boastridge Bastridge Bowlstridge Boatsridge. The Meriden/Maxstoke borders are ill defined further examination of the registers is required at Corely and Maxstoke. I suspect that this link is the so far unlinked marriage of Samuel Bolstridge and Elizabeth Bratch.
See James Bolstridge Ref 2116 for further details

Today 17/01/01 Confirmed incorrect link, Irah was 17 when baptised, Maxstoke Registers. This link now detached!
