Elizabeth HEADLAND's family - Sharnbrook/Souldrop

[lisasteve34]

p.s maybe Dorothy had twins, one died when born (william) so she named the other WIlliam? Wild guess maybe!!!!

Have just read through this thread with interest.
A Hepzibah Headland born  c 1806 in Sharnbrook married my ggg-grandfather Daniel Edwards 25th Dec 1849 in Sharnbrook I believe.

Does anyone have any idea of her parents?

Morning Dee, 

This could be Ephzibah Headland, chr 24 May 1807 at Souldrop, daughter of Simon & Sarah Headland.  I also have Edwards of Sharnbrook married into my Partridge family tree, I'll see if your Daniel links to them.

But really I must get off to do the day job, catch up later.

regards John

Thanks for that, John! 

Hepzibah was Daniel's second wife....they had one daughter Susannah. Daniel's first wife was an Elizabeth Rate, about whom I know very little.

Daniel was the son of Thomas Edwards and Rose Holliday/Holiday. Thomas had a brother William whose grandson William married a Lahannah Partridge 11th Oct 1858.

I don't want to hijack this thread though.......

Lisa;  The IGI member submitted records should not be relied on unless verified by the parish records. The William Headland who was chr 13/12/1719 Souldrop is just recorded as the son of Thomas Headland. The burial on 16 Oct 1812 states in the Souldrop PR he is father of Simon & Thomas. His marriage to Elizabeth Evans at Souldrop is on 6 Jan 1772, not 6/1/1732 as the member sumbission suggests. So in answer to your question - the IGI is not reliable if they are member submissions.

Regards John.

& yes I will be at the WDYTYA show at Olympia on Sat May 3rd, most likely on the Beds FHS stand most of the day.

Hello Dee,   I have Lehannah Partridge, 1834 daughter of Charles Partridge & Catherine Whitall in my tree. Charles P 1805 was brother to Richard P 1792 both born Bletsoe. Richard is my gt-gt-granddfather.  I have her husband William Edwards 1830 being son of William E & Mary Betts who married in Souldrop in 1814.

Thanks John.
Yes, all the details of the Edwards you have match what I have.

It's good to know a little more about Lehannah Partridge though.

I also have a Sophia Partridge, father James, born Irchester about 1822. Is she known to you?

hello Dee, 

I have researched a few Partridge families from Bozeat, Wollaston, etc... but not yet found a link to my lot. However James & daughter Sophia are mentioned on this thread. They were in Newton Blossomville on 1841 census.
