still searching for birth/baptism record

a William CROSS was baptised 6 Dec 1829, Nuneaton, Warwickshire
father = John CROSS a labourer, mother = Hannah CROSS
But, that William was still in Nuneaton, with those parents in 1861 census (and 1851).
Also, William CROSS of Abbey Street in Nuneaton, was listed in 1847, as a Butcher, who
was “qualified to serve on Juries.”

1871 census, Cottingham, Northamptonshire: age given as 42 (1829); wife Amelia;
children: Eva Annie(1859), George F(1861), William E(1869).

a William CROSS, b. ca. 1831, Harbury, was in parish Cottingham in 1881 census
with wife Amelia (b.ca.1835 Husbands Bosworth Leicestershire) and children Edgar, Henry, Edwin.
Same family, in 1871, same place, with children Eva Annie, George F. and William E.
Unable to find this family in 1861 census.
1851: Amelia NORMAN was a servant for another family in Market Harborough, Leicestershire.
(there was also a Caroline NORMAN in that household, age 20, as a servant)
Appears to have been living in Desborough, Northamptonshire, in 1841 with
parents John & Sarah and sister Caroline. Only problem is it says the girls
were born in Northamptonshire (or is that why they moved to Northamptonshire?).

A William CROSS married Amelia Norman, 26 Jan 1858, Kenilworth, Warwickshire.
William’s father listed as John CROSS, gardener
Amelia’s father listed as John NORMAN, farmer
(transcript says “NERMAN”) BMD, March 1858, confirms “NORMAN” spelling.
>> in “AZ” road atlas, see p.61 for Harbury (5H) & Kenilworth (3G) - so not too distant.

1851 census has no William CROSS who was born in Harbury. BUT: there was a William CROSS, age 20, living in Lighthorne, Warwickshire, born in “Hanbury” (according to Ancestry transcription), but the only towns named Hanbury, are in Staffordshire and Worcestershire. He was listed as a servant-footman. So if the record actually says “Harbury” then this could be him. He was living in the household of the Rector of Lighthorne. Lighthorne is only about 6 miles from Harbury.

NEW: 1861: he was in Stilton, Huntingdonshire. Ancestry transcribed his name as “CROP” - thanks to Tony Vines for finding this record.
