Hertfordshire / ARNOLD family Pirton Herts/Shillington Beds
« on: Sunday 21 February 16 21:16 GMT (UK) »
Hi there, I'm trying to track down my Arnold ancestry but the Arnold family seems to be a many-headed monster! Mine seemed to oscillate between Pirton in Herts and Shillington just over the county border in Beds. I am now stuck on Major Arnold (yes,his name, not a rank) Major married Sarah Chalkley or Chalksey in 1755 and had several children including my 6th GGrandfather Thomas(b.1767).
Major would have been born around 1730 but I can't find a christening record. I have looked on Ancestry, Familysearch and FreeReg with no luck. Major died in 1803. Can anyone find his birth? Thanks.
