I can only see what they have on Goggle Books, but both Paignton and Buckfastleigh are included.

Thank you.

How exciting to have discovered this chat as I too have an ancestor Moses Crossman who married a Elizabeth Furneaux 30 January 1728.

I am needing help (or confirmation) as I cannot find any birth records for her that are definitely her( was she born 1695 or 1698 or 1706?) - I believe her father was Samuel Furneaux married to a Elizabeth Honeywell.

I would love it if someone could assist.

Many thanks

I have an Elizabeth Furneaux, daughter of Samuel Furneaux and Elizabeth Honniwell, who was baptised in Buckfastleigh 23 Dec 1695.  However, I have her married to Philip Michelmore 31 Mar 1719 in Buckfastleigh.  I may be wrong, and there are a few Elizabeth F*s to choose from!

Hi
Thanks for your comment - it seems one group of family trees have her married as you have and another group have an Elizabeth married to my Moses Crossman but all I have is that they were married in Ippelden Devon 30 January 1728. I know there are, I think, at least 3 or 4 Elizabeths at around the right time but living in Australia I cannot visit local Devon archives. I just dont want to assume which Elizabeth I am looking at so appreciate any help

Hi

I've yet to pick through all the messages here. I am looking for Richard Furneaux ( more than one generation of) & Ann daughter of Richard, 1620s-1690s, and maybe an Elizabeth.  More than one generation marrying/ being born  Furneaux in Buckfastleigh and earlier in Paignton.

Wanted to say to Robin Redbreast - Christian Furneaux * second wife, 'son in law' as in beaufils in french, can be for 'STEP' son as well as 'husband of' daughter. I suspect 'in law' used in both those senses in late middle ages/ early modern times.

And I can see I will return to this thread. Have found similar discrepancies on Ancestry trees.
Have now spotted a Richard, son of Sybil in Buckfastly, mentioned in thread.

Thank you for info.
