Strong, Halse

[CookieA]

I am researching the Strong family from Halse, West Somerset. From a transcript of the parish record I have Grace Strong born 1755 to Faithful Strong and Elizabeth Brumham. I can't find any record of the birth of either Faithful or Elizabeth, or their marriage. On Ancestry, other people have Faithful born 1718, Halse and Elizabeth born about 1720. Can anyone help me with evidence for either Faithfull or Elizabeth?

Many thanks,

Andy

Thanks Rosie and Trish, this helps place Faithfull Strong born 1718, I can't see any evidence for this being Halse and can't find him on the parish records for Halse. I guess he could have been born elsewhere and moved to Halse by the time he married. Interesting that they were both living in Halse but married in Skilgate which must be around 10 miles from Halse.

I hadn't come across FreeREG either, so thanks for introducing me to a new tool.
