Burley of Chiddingstone request
« on: Thursday 20 September 18 18:41 BST (UK) »
Hello

I'm seeking help with the Burley family, who may have come from Chiddingstone, and to see whether there are any in the records.

In particular, there's a John Burley/Burly who was born in around 1710 (give or take a few years either side). He went on to marry a Fanne (surname unknown), although where is unclear. They had a daughter, also called Fanne, who was baptised in Limpsfield, Surrey, on 15 Aug 1742 - this record states that John is 'of Chitinstone'. This notation is not present on the baptism record of his son William in 1740 (also in Limpsfield) so I'm not sure whether John was in Chiddingstone temporarily or had indeed come from there.

If you could help me either way, I'd be very grateful as I'm struggling to pin John's baptism down to anywhere else!

Thanks
Stephen Finch

Hello
There is a baptism at Chiddingstone but it's a bit earlier
John s of John and Elizabeth 25.5.1701.
parents had married 21.4.1701 John Burley husbandman and Elizabeth Blackman.
No other children in the parish.
Burial for a John Burley no age given 17.8.1707 but could be Dad.

It looks like he married Frances Hutchins of Lympsfield 29.1.1739 at West Kingsdown,Kent.
John  is of Ocksted ,Surrey

Not sure if they are the same man.

Hi me agian
I'd just like to add there are other Burley's at Chiddingstone.
Richard s of Richard and Sarah 6.2.1688
Son Thomas 1.10.1690
Richard married Sarah Walter 29.3.1687.
James s of Richard and Elizabeth 21.3.1687 presumably the first wife.Buried 15.4.1688

Ann 9.4.1671 d of James Burle  (and buried 17.5.1671) and her brother John baptised  23.3.1668.
James married Ann Chapman 3.7.1656
James buried 11 .12.1694
Joane d of James buried 20.1.1674
James s of James buried 10.7.1662

See what you think.It  may be that your John had to look after his widowed mother so he married later.
