Leighton Browswold Registers Wimpress Family
« on: Wednesday 08 July 09 22:00 BST (UK) »
Wimpress /Winepress of Leighton Bromswold

Can someone help with a look up for Wimpress Families in Leighton Bromswold registers that have I think been copied. I have traced all my family since they went to Easton and Ellington from earlier registers in 1700's, however a Marriage has come to light of a Joseph Wimpress in 1691 in the above registers. They were copied on LDS files but there is no references to Births and Deaths. Does anyone have  /or seen a copy to help me out please. I have marriages and births from Easton in early 1700's

Many thanks

Apart from the 1691 marriage between Joseph Wimpriss and Mary Howes (who was a widow) there is nothing else for Wimpress/Winepress, etc in Leighton Bromswold until 1817.

Thanks Sue,

Much appreciated for the prompt reply, I was hopeful as I'm trying to get a link with marriages in Easton in early 1710-1725. It would have shown children who married in Easton as being children of the couple (I think 5 of them marrying) one of which was a Joseph Wimpress according to the Easton registers but they are are only from the early 1700's. Other than Easton and Ellington, no other references are made with this name that I know of, perhaps over the border in Northamptonshire. It is of course possible that with Joseph marrying a Widow he may have come from over the county border in Northamptonshire.
