BARRATT/BARRETT Donhead St Mary
« on: Friday 24 December 10 20:24 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for the parents and wife and further antecedents of Hugh Barratt/Barrett who was born in Donhead St Mary in about 1811.  He married and had two children, William 1833 and Martha b 1836  both born at Donhead St M. so possibly he married a local girl.  In 1841 he was living at Donnington in, Berkshire with his wife Mary, four children and a house servant.  He worked as a stonemason.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, tho I may not be able to log on again for a few days over Christmas!

1851 has mother in law Martha Green aged 73 b Speen Berks living with them so you are looking for a Barrett/Green marriage

Mary was born in Donnington so it's possible they married there and not Wiltshire

Somebody else seems to have an interest in this family as transcription amendements have been notified to the 1851 census in January

If you have a subscription - the 1851 reference is as follows:

HO107 Piece 1685 Folio 549 Page 5
