This is interesting Jelnel, we have some of the same witnesses ! John Poulter and Joseph Purkiss, it looks like our ancestors had some friends in common, do you think ?
Thanks again Kath,I do love finding out these things.

Hi Ruth

Just to let you know that John Poulter & Joseph Purkiss witnessed a lot of marriages, i would assume that they could have possibly been church clerks or maybe had some sort of standing in the community also.

Hi Ruth,

According to Wiki there were 129 people living in Barnson in 1801. So not many witnesses to choose from!! I haven't found any Poulters or Purkiss's in my Savill tree. Kath is probably correct.
