Bonchier/Bouchier/Boucher - Horncastle area 1600s-1700s
« on: Saturday 17 March 18 21:30 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

I have an ancestor named Susanna Bonchier, who married Thomas Holmes in Belchford, Lincs on 19 June 1698.

No baptism located for her but there is another Bonchier (or Bouchier), Charles, who also married in Belchford in 1710. Possibly a brother. Looking more broadly, there are quite a few Bonchier/Bouchier/Boucher's in the area in the preceding 100+ years. They mainly seem to be based in Low Toynton, not far at all from Belchford so I reckon they are the same family.

However I currently haven't figured out how to piece them all together! Does anyone else have ancestors with similar surnames in the area?

Thanks!

Jack
