FORDS in Newport (Barnstaple)
« on: Tuesday 22 August 06 14:41 BST (UK) »
Hi,

can anyone help with birth records in Devon c1892 - c1895 please?!

I've found that a branch of my family (David Brown Ford (a marine engine fitter) his wife Agnes Ford (nee Murray) and their three daughters (Marion, Jessie and Ann) moved from Dundee to Newport in Devon (on the outskirts of Barnstaple) c1890 - 1891.

Whilst they were there, they had two daughters (Agnes c1892 and Hellen c1895), however I've not been able to find any records of their birth, etc.  Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?!

Thanks in advance

Rob

Whoops!

although the 1901 census said they were born in Newport (Devon) I've actually just found on FreeBMD that they were born in Newport, Gwent.

Sorry!
