Right I have been looking As you have found it looks like the William born in Ufton in 1753 married Ann MAYCOCK and died in Ufton in 1801
We know William and his wives lived in Lad broke which is perfect for the William Kohab has found in Long Itchington
There is a burial in Ladbroke of a 70 year old William Overton 21 June 1819 giving a birth in 1749
Long Itchington is just north of Southam and Ladbroke just South of the town so it looks very sound to me and I will adjust my tree accordingly

Long Itchington registers also have a Richard baptised in 1720 which could be the Richard father of Thomas born 1749 in Ufton who married my Sarah Hakesley so the two may yet link up.

[Kohab]

Hi,

Yes it is possible that this is the Richard, however a Richard Overton is recorded as being buried Long Itchington on 8th March 1737.

My intention now is to look into all Overtons recorded in Long Itching and nearby parishes via Ancestry before broadening to other evidence. One interesting fact I have already picked up on is that there was an increased number of burials during the period mid 1720's to 1740. In fact 15 Overton's were buried in the small village of Long Itchington between 1727 and 1738. I presume that there was either some serious illness in the area, e.g., cholera or a famine.

Good luck with the An..ry search I spent the morning correcting transcriptions for John and Hannah Overton's children I noticed that Family Search had more than the two that turned up when I searched on An..ry so I went back a forth through the register and found the extra ones shown on FS for example they have:
John Voeston    Baptism    27 Dec 1743    Long Itchington    John Voeston    Hannah Voeston
but when you look at it it is clearly Overton.In fairness the date is hard to read but I think it more like 18th than 27th.
Still it is quicker than a trip to Warwick for us.. not as much fun though.
Let me know if you link John (father of William 1748) and Richard (father of William 1753)

I wish there were ages on those early deaths it would be sooo helpful

[Kohab]

My way is to ignore their transcriptions and go through the original records a page at a time. I will then go back and check against transcriptions. It's slow but it works.

On a separate note, it looks as though Jesse, brother of Thomas and Samuel, also had a military career.

Jesse 1794? I'll take a look . Agree time consuming but worth it thats how i found the odd transcripts.

I see what you mean Bugbrook is well into Northamptonshire was his birth place miss heard or understood should it be Ladbroke Warwickshire? I can't find a Jesse Overton born in Bugbrook on line it would be an amazing coincidence for two Jesses the same age one from Ladbroke and one from Bugbrook wouldn't it
Jesse had the Waterloo medal and served in Canada but there is scant information on his service on line I wonder if there is more in Kew.

Greetings,

Below is the list of baptisms for Overtons in Long Itchington. I have not checked all against Ancestry yet, but suspect a number will be missing from the website. I'm sorry that things don't line up, I can e-mail the original excel doc if anyone wants a copy. Dates in the last column are where Jan/Feb/Mar are recorded in prior year. Next in line are burials.
