Hello Everyone,

The name "Killingworth" is a family name for Edmund Killingworth Stone.

In trying to find his ancestor's, there is so much info, that I can't see the wood for the "Tree's"

So far.. I have Killingworth Hedges marries Jane Bishop in Wootton Oxon c1823.

But which Killingworth Hedges....

Hiya

Lesanne could you give us clues? rough year/place of birth for Edward? have you found him in any census? there are various bits I think to make sense of them you will have to take it step by step

Debbie have you got Wootten, Woodstock PRs to check for baptism of above ??

OK so Edward Killingworth Stone born about 1853 Wootton, Oxfordshire to Edmund Stone and Ann (nee Hedges) and it's Ann's side we are after.

From a site site found by Google her parents were Killingworth Hedges & Jane Bishop which matches with the marriage found earlier

I wonder where the London ones come in?
