My G-G-Grandmother was Jane RANCE, born in 1813 in Stevenage to William RANCE and Elizabeth PIGGOT.  She married Benjamin ANSELL on 30th April in Stevenage. On some records the name is spelt RUNCE.  Witnesses to the wedding were William and Sarah ANSELL.

I have no other information on the RANCE family as I have been researching the ANSELLs and this is difficult from Lancashire where the name became HANSELL.

Good luck

My apologies for butting in here - Pauline I have the Piggot family as well in Herts. Unfortunately mine are back in the 1400-1600's but they must be connected somewhere along the line.

Hi all,

Just to put my 2 penny's worth into the conversation:

I have RANCE featured in my tree in several places BUT all in the Berkshire area married into the HEADACH/HERRIDGE line.

Now I know that there is also a strong HEADACH/HERRIDGE line in Rickmansworth I believe that appeared all of a sudden in the late 1700's from Berkshire (still has to be proved but highly likely). Could be that the RANCE's did the same!

Just a thought!  Smiley
