"COMPLETED" GODFREY Woughton on the Green PR Look-up please

[janan]

Hi

Would someone be able to check this Woughton on the Green marriage for the unlikely chance of any extra info please?

Shingleton GODFREY to Emma CHAPMAN 17 APR 1610   

In addition if you can see any baptisms for this couple that would be great.

I have a  Margaret, wife of Singleton GODFREY, buried 25 Feb 1609 in Potsgrove Beds and a Singleton GODFREY buried 3 Aug 1613  also in Potsgrove - as this is the only GODFREY activity in the Potsgrove  PR and Singleton is an unusual name I am trying to link the two.

Thank you in advance
Jan

   Jan the gods were smiling

  Considering that thr PR's for 1558 - 1598 are listed as unreadable. I did look at some transciptions that have been done ....odd dates odd names but no substance, 1610 was a lot better in the book as there is no film available.

so  ........

 "Shingleton Godfrey de potsgrave et Emma Chapman copulati 17 Apr 1610"


     could not be better but no baptisms are readable as per dates above

Hi Tazzie.

That is amazing - sometimes the records do surprise
Still don't know if this the Singleton buried in Potsgrove or a son (no baptism found) and absolutely no idea how he/they might connect to the Singleton Godfrey (no baptism found) who was having children in Ipollitts, Herts 1671-87, but it is another piece in the jigsaw! Wonderful.

Thank you once  again for your help

   The name is so unusual but as you say the ares are not near each other for them to wander between st Ippolits and Potsgrove.

  The records were a real shame not sure what had happened to them but the note says not available for research. I did not look for bishops transcripts though I wonder if they are available for the time. I will keep it in my book as I will be back in on Tuesday we are having a "Dickins " of  a times witha Samuel round the villages.

Yes it is a bit of a trek Potsgrove to Ipollitts but since there is no marriage on the Allen index for the Herts Singleton I live in hope that there was some migrating going on
Thanks for the offer of checking if there are Bishops transcripts.

   Hi Jan .....

  Looked at the BT 's today but nothing for earlier than the marriage. Shingleton's marriage entry stood out loud and clear BUT  I swear it was Sept.
 The entry below was for the following April and a baptism so the written transcript that I looked at has April.

                   Tazzie

   Potsgrove is a really small place hardly anyone there now.

Thanks for doing that Tazzie.
Would that be Sept 1609 or 10?

This Singleton business is really bugging me - I am sure the Potsgrove Singleton (or possibly Singletons) have to be related to the Ippollitts guy, but there is just this big hole between the 1613 burial and the 1671 baptism. I have exhausted all databases I have access to and turned up no more references - so infuriating

Thanks again
Jan

   Hi Jan ......

           still 1610.

 No wonder you going in circles as you say big gap ....big distance.
 Interesting that the member sub for the marriage does give Sept 1610 but the wrong date of the 17.

  Alot of ground to cover inbetween.

Hi

Thank you.
I will file him away and who knows when I'm not looking for him he may pop up - it's happened before
