Sarah Lightfoot

[Redroger]

Sarah nee Mottley married John Lightfoot in Coningsby in 1778. She appears to have died prior to 1784 as a John Lightfoot married Ann Moore in this year, also at Coningsby. Can anyone confirm the death please?

John was my 5th great grandfather, I and descended from his son William from his 2nd wife.

There is a burial of a John Lightfoot, b 1790, in Toynton St Peter on 25th September 1847.

He also appears on on index to wills for 1847, but no details, and some electoral registers in Toynton.
