Helina Pedder
« on: Monday 04 January 10 09:20 GMT (UK) »
This lady married a ancestor of mine and they lived in Totternhoe, does anyone know if she was a relative to the Pedders of Tilsworth?

Thank you.

Forgot to say this was about 1538-1603

As Tilsworth and Totternhoe are only a mile apart there's every chance that there's a connection. But as her baptism would have been before Tilsworth or Totternhoe parish registers were started you need to look for other documents, the most useful being wills. I gave links in your earlier related post at http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,313375.0.html

The name Pedder has no mention in VCH Beds in either Tilsworth or Totternhoe, nor in the Visitations of Beds.
