Hello

Looking for any information about Richard Mills born 1733 Wiltshire died in Fovant 01/03/1820. Birthplace, parents names, siblings etc.  He had a brother John who may have lived and died Whatcombe, Dorset.  His son was Charles George Mills who lived in Fovant.

Is he the one in the IGI
christened on 22nd March 1733 in Swindon Wiltshire
parents Thomas MILLS and Jane JONES

On the IGI record click on family and you can see that he had 8 siblings including a John.

There is nothing to confirm that this is the one that you are looking for.
Do you have anything on his wife?

Hi Dave
Many thanks for the info, just don't know how to link your info to this Richard.  His wife I believe was Elizabeth, they kept a Tavern/Inn in Andover called the White Star but later moved to Fovant to keep The White Hart coaching inn. No record of an Elizabeth Mills death for Fovant in the parish records!!!!
