Christian HAMPSHIRE was baptised in 1675 at Cassington. She married Richard WASTIE at Cumnor in 1697 and then moved to Eynsham where the couple had 11 children between 1698 and 1719.
There doesn't seem to be any burial for her at Eynsham (although a recheck of the PRs would be appreciated!). Any help in locating her burial would be greatly welcomed.
Rechecked Eynsham for Christian's burial....you are right she doesn't appear to have been buried there.
BUT, just a thought....could she have been entered as Ann? There is a burial for Ann WASTIE 29 May 1743 (2weeks after Richard) entered thus on the OFHS transcription WASTIE :Ann what does the colon ( : ) mean?...could it be abbreviation?

Ooh ... that's interesting! In fact, I didn't have that burial on my list of WASTIE burials at Eynsham - will have to try and find out what that colon means.
Unfortunately, Richard and Christian had a daughter, Ann, in 1713 - and I haven't found a marriage for her, so she could be the Ann in question (instead of her mother).
