Hi tropicalj,

The place is 5 miles north of Swindon, according to this site:

Unfortunately neither Broad Blunsdon or Stratton St Margaret parish records are not included on the IGI, so Hugh Wallis' site will not make reference to them.  Nor are they included on BVRI2.  :(

On the same site you can find Stratton, too.

They are NOT there because Hugh Wallis gives the batch numbers for parishes and dates included on the IGI and these parishes are not included on the IGI.

Hi Tropicalj
I noticed that you are researching Townsends in Broad Blundsden & wondered if I could ask for some help please?

I have a Margaret Townsend who marries Thomas Hall 2.10.1788 Broad Blunsden & is bu there 9.5.1844. Based on death cert & 1841 census I have a birth date of c1758.

Does she tie into any of your families?
Regards Ffortune
