thanks for that link on the sherriffs which enlightens me .....
2 names appear on that list that have been a bit of a thorn to me....
"1762: Prince Sutton, of Devizes"
"1785: James Sutton of New Park, Devizes [or of Roundway]"
and if some one has the time or inclination could a bmd of some fashion or link to a tree for them be posted please......? thanks
