London and Middlesex / Eliz. Plankney, Parish and Burial 1621
« on: Thursday 20 July 23 20:58 BST (UK)  »
Hi All, can anyone help?
I am looking for the Parish and burial of Elizabeth Plankney 1621.
She left a will (London Consistory court) and there are summaries online but none mention her parish. The index I have for the wills gives the address and parish of the testator but in the case of Elizabeth all it records is 'London'.
Thanks, Nigel

Hi Folks, can anyone help? Re: the Parson of Branston church "Robert Ansley" 1522

I have the will of a priest from Lincoln d.1522 in it he leaves money to the church of Braunceton which I understand to be Branston a few miles south of Lincoln, he also mentions the parson/priest as Robert Ansley. can anyone confirm this is correct?

Thanks, Nigel

I should have said James Totty was his "Great" grandfather

 A--maz-ing, Brilliant, Thank you so much for the photo, I have been searching for years as has a Dalton cousin of mine who even traveled to Canada in search of Totty.
He was named not only after his father but also his illegitimate Grandfather James Totty.
James father was headmaster of the school. James was originally apprenticed to the printing trade. Again many, many thanks for the photo and your research.

regards, Nigel

Can some very kind soul do a look up for me?
Pershore Holycross church registers 1538-1640

Margaret dau of William, born about 1580 ish.
Many thanks in advance to anyone who can spare their valuable time to do this look up ;)

Thanks again.  I was getting confused and thought Long Marston was in Worcs but it was originally in Glos. now in Warks, the surviving registers copies or otherwise from 1603 are held at the Warwick record office.

The marriage date must be wrong as it seems doubtfull she married John keyte 3 weeks before her husband John bovey died. Unless of course this is the wrong John Keyte and Margaret  (Harrison) Bovey ?

 ;) Thank you for your kindness in giving your valuable time and help.
It does help but as you might guess it leaves many Q,s unanswered. The Baptism of Margaret dau of William was the most important.
My interest stems from the Bovies of Alcester.
Margaret H married John Bovey Gent of Kings Coughton about 1608?...he died Feb 1637 aged 73,
Margaret widow of Mr Bovey then married Sir John Keyte of Ebrington Glos. Margaret Dau of William Harrison of Caddicroft. (Burkes extinct Baronetices)
The marriage of Margaret & J Keyte was at Long Marston 1 Feb 1637 but that can't be right as Bovey was buried 24th Feb 1637 (Gregorian calendar), A codicil added to his will was dated 14 Feb 1637.
If you have the time to check the Long Marston Marriage it would be of great help. The marriage was apparently 1 Feb 1636 (Julian calendar) according to "family search". Apparently Dame Margaret died in 1669, she would be quite aged!
I hope the wills are helpfull?

Kind regards, Nigel
