Devon / Thomas HEALE / Peternel
« on: Saturday 02 July 11 04:54 BST (UK)  »
Need a bit of assistance with this couple who i believe are the parents of My Joanna Heale.

Joanna was born 1764 in Bratton Flemming,   

Thomas Heale and mother petronell / peternell

All there children were born in Bratton Flemming

Where else can i look for a marriage for Thomas and his wife and deaths etc,

they had 4 children
Joanna
john
Margaret
Thomasin.

Any help with Thomas and peternel would be very much appreciated.

Im guessing they would have been born around the 1730 mark and married around 1754  as that is when the first child i can find was born,  :)
