Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Re: family bible mystery - help please!!!!
« on: Saturday 16 September 23 19:09 BST (UK) »George Barton (1798-1847) was my GGGGrandfather. He married Jane Colenutt (1793-?) on 9th Dec 1821 at St Mary's Portsea. They had 7 children, George Robert Barton was the eldest (1823-1861).
GR Barton married Betsey Shiner (1823-?) 11th Jan 1846 at Alverstoke.
Other names associated with this family are: Riddett (from IOW) and Peill(from Kent)
I do have more details of this family if it is of any use to you let me know.
How they come to have a reference in your bible is a real mystery from the Barton side too, it appears.

I have sent you a private message asking for your email address so I can send you a photo of the bible cover. I am very interested how the Riddetts fit in as that is a name on my husband's side which is amazing!
