John Allington 1802-1880 Great Easton

Burial, Gt Easton 29.11.1870, Elizabeth Allerton, aged 70
In view of the age, and transcribing of name in baptisms I suspect this is Elizabeth Allington

With regard to people of Great and Little Easton being married, buried or baptising children in parishes other than that where they are living, just thought I'd mention you might see the home parish as Much, Great or Little Ashen.

About a year ago my research found ancestor's children baptised at Thaxted, Essex and the parents stated to be "of Much Ashen", checked Ashen PRs and found no mention of the family name, then the trail led to Great Easton, other baptisms, burials and marriages proved that the "Much Ashen" was in fact Much/Great Easton.  Since then I have found similar instances with other of my family names. 

Not sure how this problem came about, probably due to the way people of Great & Little Easton pronounce Easton and the recording clerks being unfamiliar with Easton, Ashen in Essex is still a very small populated village and it has always been just Ashen, no Little or Great Ashen.

Once again, thanks to all for details of marriage & baptisms & mother's maiden name. That's a few more gaps filled and I'll be back with a few more queries...but I didn't know about the GRO development and will now attempt to use it.
