I have been strugling for ages trying to find the parents of my GGGGG Grandmother Catherine Lacon. I know she married John Beard in 1770 at St Leonards, Broseley. She was born in about 1748 in Broseley. If anyone has any clue to who her parents were I would appreciate it.
This is the only one showing on the IGI but it may not be yours as area is wrong.
Catherin LAYCON ch. 20.1.1746 St. Andrews, Norfolk.
Father John Mother Mary.

"Sir Francis Lacon, the eldest son, succeeded to the manors of Willey and Kinlet, of which the former was sold by him to Sir John Weld sometime between the years 1612 and 1623. His granddaughter, Catherine Lacon, carried his remaining estates, greatly dismembered (for he sold largely, and his son Rowland suffered much in the service of Charles I.), in marriage to Sir William Childe, Knight, Doctor of Laws, and Master in Chancery, from whom the present Squire of Kinlet is descended"
