Title: Thomas Heyward 1802 North Bovey
Post by: kjmck on Tuesday 09 January 18 01:06 GMT (UK)
Hi Everyone

I have just hit a brick wall and my head hurts from the impact  ??? ??? :-\ :-\

Thomas Heyward married Susanna Berry 24/07/1823 in North Bovey in the presence of William Berry, James Berry, Ann Pethybridge, J. N. Heyward, Sarah Nosworthy, & J. Walling.

In 1841 Thomas is living with Susanna and their family and his estimated birth year is 1806.
In 1851 - 1881 his birth year is given as 1802 and his birth place as North Bovey.

Somewhere along the line I have put his parents as Thomas Heyward 1769 - 1841 & Susanna Amery 1778 - 1816. This Thomas & Susanna married 14/12/1799 in Lustleigh, Devon (Where Susanna was from), and I have found the baptisms of two of their sons - William in 1800 & Andrew in 1804 both in North Bovey, but I cannot find one for Thomas. The info I had for him was of a Thomas Nosworthy Heyward Baptised 04/01/1802 in North Bovey to Andrew Heyward & Susanna Nosworthy (Thomas Nosworthy Heyward was a twin of John Nosworthy Heyward). There is a marriage for Thomas Nosworthy Heyward to Elizabeth Nosworthy on 13/07/1833 in Bovey Tracey.

If anyone can help me in finding Thomas Heyward's baptism record I would greatly appreciate it so I know that I have his parents correct.

Thank you!

Thomas Nosworthy Hayward dies in 1859. Thomas Heyward is still alive with wife in 1861. So I would say the first set of parents are possibly the correct ones.

There is a baptism on Family Search but it does not seem to have parents. Susannah Berry is also on the same page.

Hi - Would you be able to send me a link to the FamilySearch page where it has Susannah Berry on it? I have searched but can't seem to find it.

Ah I see it now thanks. That is the christening for Thomas Nosworthy Heyward and his twin brother John Nosworthy Heyward in January of 1802.
