Temple Guiting gravestone photo please - completed thanks
« on: Sunday 30 December 07 15:40 GMT (UK) »

Hi All,

I have been told that there is a gravestone just inside the churchyard gate at Temple Guiting for some of my ancestors - the Dowdeswells.

If anyone happens to be nearby with their camera I would love a photo please  Smiley

I wonder if it is in any of these photos ~ though they are too small to know, I would imagine:

Hi Tricia,

Thank you for taking the trouble to find these photos - they certainly give a feel for the place  Smiley 

As you suggested, the gravestones are too small to read - and are at odd angles but thank you anyway  Smiley

I did take some photos of Temple Guitong church some time ago. If I find anything useful, I'll let you know. ~ I was checking out the Knights Templar at the time, though, not family history.

Thanks Tricia - I read about the Knights Templar connection to Temple Guiting during the course of my research into this family, very interesting  Smiley

Hello Maggie,
I am new to rootschat, and have been reading through different post threads. I too have Temple Guiting Dowdeswell connections, and believe we have a connection. I trace descent from Jonathan Dowdeswell (b.1656), a son of Anthony Dowdeswell. If my research is correct, your ancestor is another of Anthony's sons, John (b.1647).

Hi Darren,

Welcome to Rootschat.

I have been researching the Dowdeswells for quite a while now.

I am descended from John Dowdeswell c1647 as you have identified - I have managed to get back to John Dowdeswell who I think died c1585. At the moment I am transcribing wills for Anthony Dowdeswell's sons, your Jonathan's included  Smiley who I think moved to Wimbledon.

I am happy to share information with you if you would like to do that.

Hello Maggie,
Hopefully I can save you some time and effort. I have wills for John (d. ca1585), Ferdinando (d. 1618), Anthony (d. 1668), and Jonathan (d. 1708). If you are interested we can swap trees.

Hi Darren,

I have transcribed most of those you mention and am working on Thomas Dowdeswell now - brother of Anthony and Jonathan.  I'm finding it hard going because there are 15 pages of it!! 

It would be good to swap transcriptions though, because I'm never sure that I have it all correct, if you think that would be alright.  I would also be happy to swap trees too.

I will send you a PM with my email address.
