Richard TAVINER born 1771 Biddestone, Wiltshire

[ERT]

Hi

I'm still trying to track down Richard Taviner's parents, with little success.  He married Sarah Hulbert (born 1772) on 8th November 1790 at St Nicholas, Biddestone, Wiltshire (according to parish records).  I don't have a marriage certificate to find names of his parents.

Any suggestions?

(He had 5 children - Elizabeth (b 1791) , Amy (b 1804), William (b 1807), Chapman (b 1809)& Richard b 1812, all in Biddestone)

Hi Yourself,

Familysearch.org shows to following possibility;


https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NRG4-XQM

Richard's family (wife/children) is listed on the same site.

There is a tree in Ancestry that should help (unless it is yours)


Good Luck

Richard

No baptism in Biddestone for a Richard Taviner. There is a James & Jane baptising children around that time but no Richard.

Did find the following in the North Wraxall Baptism Transcriptions.

4 Feb 1770. Richard Taverner. Son. Richard & Rebecka. North Wraxall.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for that information.  I think that my parents found this Richard (son of Richard & Rebecka, North Wraxall) & they said that he died as a baby, so couldn't be our Richard.  Do you have a date of death for him ?  They could be wrong about this.

Thanks

Have no other info for deaths in North Wraxall.

You may already know but it looks as if Richard & Sarah had four other children, I will list them in case you do not have these baptisms.

8 June 1794. Ann Tavener. Dau.
3 Sept 1797. Jane    "         Dau.
5 May 1799. Jacob   "         Son.
24 April 1799. Issac  "        Son.

http://history.wiltshire.gov.uk/community/getcom.php?id=19  discribes Biddestone as being full of quakers and fanatics

an email to Swindon Archives or Corsham may resolve this

Or check Phillimores for a possible marriage
