Blunham Parish register look up - THODY
« on: Saturday 08 April 06 21:47 BST (UK) »
If anyone has the transcript of Blunham parish register I’d be very grateful for some assistance in sorting out the THODY families who were buried there. They were Baptists and many weren’t baptised in the established church, and they were not exactly original in their naming patterns. The NBI has a number of burials but it doesn’t include vital detail such as son of…., or labourer, or wife of…., widow, etc, which can at least help show if the deceased was a child or an adult or whatever.

Burials are as follows:
13 Feb 1750   Elizabeth
16 Feb 1751   Richard
7 Oct  1759    William
25 Jul 1760     child
18 Sep 1762   John
19 Aug 1783   Richard
29 Oct 1784    John
5 Jan 1791    Elizabeth
9 Jun 1793    Mary
23 Dec 1805   Ann

The family was from Cardington ( I believe that Richard buried 1751 was born there, but he moved to Biggleswade and then Blunham, where two of his sons had families)

Many thanks in advance should anyone be able to help

Thanks very much Susan. More than "some help". I can now place all of them, combining them with the wills I've got.

Much appreciated
