Derbyshire / Re: John Wall and wife troth of Darley, Derbyshire
« on: Tuesday 18 March 25 10:13 GMT (UK)  »

One thought that has occurred to me (and this is a stab in the dark) is that Troth came from a family who were not Church of England and her records may not be available.


More likely she was born in a parish which has no surviving records for that time. Looking at a few neighbouring parishes, Bonsall has nothing before 1634, Matlock 1637. It is also common for there to be gaps in records from the Civil War and Commonwealth times, 1640s and 1650s.

In case you haven't seen them, John and Troth's wills are available on FindMyPast.

They had sons Anthony, William, John, Stephen and David. (Except David is only mentioned in Troth's will, not in John's.)

I don't think the 'mother church' here is Lincoln, sorry.

I think it could be, compare the last letter with that of "heven".

That's strange. I used a program that's supposed to construct a sharing link from an Ancestry image (visible even if you don't have a subscription) but it gave the BT link even when used on the PR image. Here are direct links (if you do have a subscription)

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Anne's surname name in Will entry
« on: Monday 25 November 24 09:04 GMT (UK)  »
Looking at the next few wills, they all have the same "D" as seen elsewhere in this will until the will of John Warrein, image 71. That has "Domini" and "Defender" in the opening phrase with the two different forms. It seems the scribe just occasionally uses the other form, and so the name here can be safely taken to be "Dane".

Cowlstocke.

Daughter Elizabeth is the "now wife" of Edward Langridge, so they could be her children by a previous husband.

Devon / Re: Mystery Winsor family in Ugborough 1780s-1790s
« on: Saturday 09 November 24 19:16 GMT (UK)  »
Since we now have that Betty was also a Winsor it's equally possible that the DNA link to the Modbury family is through her. Could she be the Elizabeth daughter of William and Grace Winsor baptised there in 1752?

 [***lin] = Tanlin (or possibly Taulin, usual u/n problem)
[****] = Likewise
 [?_ling?] = Thurling
 [?Roberts?] = Probably is Roberts, followed by a little = used to separate the names. (If that's not an =, then might be Henry Robert John Richards - one name - but unlikely.)
