Northamptonshire / Parish church Northampton
« on: Tuesday 19 November 19 08:34 GMT (UK) »
If a couple married in 'the parish church of St Edmunds' in 1955 what church would this be?
I read that the ecclesiastical district of St Edmund's was formed from that of St Giles so would it be St Giles church or All Saints?

Wiltshire Lookup Requests / Compton Chamberlayne
« on: Monday 20 May 19 14:33 BST (UK) »
Anyone familiar with the history of Compton Chamberlayne?
An ancestor died in 1777 and his occupation is recorded in his will as a millwright
I understand a mill was identified in the Domesday records of 1086 and literature says this was removed and another was built in 1635 'north of Compton House at southern end of the Northern lake'.
Ive searched on various oldish maps online but cannot locate exactly where it was located
There is another mill at Dinton that seems to be called Compton Chamberlayne's Mill but this is located further north of the village so I think this is a red herring
I'd very much like to find where this ancestor lived.... can anyone help?
ps
In his will he left leases to 2 houses callled Snooks and Hascalls. Seeing as there were Snook and Haskell families present in the village at this time I assume the cottages were named after these tenants and the names didnt continue for more than a few generations.

Hi
Hope you are still offering 'look ups'
I'm researching the Macgeorges/Mcgeorges of East Street. According to the baptism records for the children of Jonas and Fanny he was a smith/whitesmith
Many thanks

Does anyone know if the records of births and burials for Little Staughton Baptist church post 1811 exist? I've found those for 1710-1811 but would like to have a look at later entries
Many thanks
