Title: Eaton Socon lookup please
Post by: molliedog on Tuesday 19 July 11 05:30 BST (UK)

I am after any more information if possible please on the burial of a Thomas Ball in Eaton Socon on 4/9/1833. Also the marriage of his widow, Susannah Ball to John Shepherd (widow) in 1836.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Witnesses to the marriage were Joseph Flint & Robert Flanders as per the Escans site.

Interesting to note that these two witnessed the marriage of John Ball, bach to Mary Seymour, spin on 13 Nov 1836

However on other marriages it says Robert Flanders was the clerk.

Thomas Ball was buried at St Mary's Eaton Socon aged 49 years.

Thanks for the information. It would seem that Susannah and her son were married on the same day!!
