Title: Two John Harts
Post by: MacGrigor on Tuesday 31 July 18 16:01 BST (UK)

Hello,

I'm trying to find my ancestor John Hart, but I see two christened in Milton Ernest, one in 1618 and one in 1625. Either could be my ancestor. Can anyone find a burial in that parish following those dates? I can only see one marriage in the parish, in 1645, so I presume one must have died.

I'd appreciate any help!

Adam

The 2 closest for a John Hart look to be 1662 and 1676 for Milton Ernest, so unless one moved out of the village, or buried elsewhere..

They can be found on FindMyPast [free search]

The church is possibly All Saints [formerly All Hallows] See GENUKI link..

From Milton Ernest Parish Registers transcript:-

** note.. supposed to be baptised..... interlined, written in a different hand

1 May 1625 John son of Thomas Hart

Marriage
7 Apr 1645 John Hart to Joan Andrew

** Burial of Joan Hart on 20 Sept 1665

Burials
29 Apr 1662 John son of John Hart
** most likely John, son John Hart baptised 20 Mar 1652-53

18 Apr 1676 John Hart
** Beds Archives have an Admon for him Ref AR 1676 1/40 suggesting he died without a will.
It may name someone trying to claim his estate, might be worth getting them to look this out for you.

Cheers John
