Hello all,
I'm looking for some help in finding the parent's and siblings of Thomas Baynton c. 1791, Kilmersdon. He was married sometime before 1826, as we have a child Martha born in Somerset. His last child Lydia Baynton was born in 1835. I believe he is a widower in 1841, as he is alone with his children living in Bedminster, Somerset then. Thomas Baynton died around Apr/May/June 1865. Thomas Baynton was a Brewer.
There is a death of an Elizabeth Baynton Sept qtr 1840, Bedminster that might be his wife.
There is a possibility that he had two brothers.
There are many Baynton's in Mell, which is just three miles south of Kilmersdon.
Thomas' son George Baynton, born c. 1833, Bristol, married a Rosetta Baynton from Peckham, Surrey. Rosetta's father Charles Baynton was from Mells, Somerset. (Charles Baynton c. 1801 Mells, Somerset). I don't know if there is any connection between the two families before this marriage. Charles Baynton was noted as a Brewer in 1841, but in 1851 as a landed proprietor and in 1881 as a retired Brewer.
There was a marriage of a Thomas Baynton and Sarah Wrintmoor on April 16, 1786 in Kilmersdon, which might be Thomas Baynton's parents?
There is also a christening of a Mercy Baynton on March 2, 1806, in Kilmersdon to Thomas and Sarah Baynton.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
