Re John Turner's wife Elizabeth Strood - nothing on A2A for Strood in Berks., but a good few Wills for Stroud, which is what I think her surname may actually be, having had a quick bash at the IGI (didn't find her though    )

If you fancy having a crack at any of these Wills, Lesanne, I'm up for it...

...and just a quick thought, I had a re-read of some of the earlier posts in Parts 1 and 2 today - do you still want a transcript of the Will of Joseph Keeble, or did he turn out not to be important? since the topic has been moved, the link seems to have gone, I can't view or download the image

Hi Lesanne

did you notice on P 18 of part 3 that there is a place called STROUD Green ....(could that be Elizabeth Strood's family's property?)

Toni had mentioned the fact that there were no Strood names on Igi or NA ..and that possibly the name was really Stroud ....

It seems that all these families were pretty much interwoven....

also ..if possible could you outline what we are looking for .... apart frrom robert Norris' birth hee hee ....

Travellers = Penfold, Orchard, James
Devon = Middleton,  Waterfield, Adams, Clark/e, Gould
Cornwall = Palmer, Carnarton, Slack/Smith. Morris/h

It would be great if we linked up Turners with the History of the area.
Last couple Ralph and Susanna.
  :o Maybe it was them, burnt at the stake in Windsor.
The wills are so interesting. What happened to that Turner/Plumridge line?

The Norris's, last seen in Headington, Oxfordshire? Were they part of The Norris's of Ockwells (Ockholt)  Bray?
Last couple, Henry and Jane Godfrey.
Did Henry Norris belong to the Rycote, Oxfordshire, Norris (part of Bray/Speke Norris)?
