Elizabeth Andrews 1735
« on: Friday 28 September 18 18:14 BST (UK) »
Hi

Seeking to confirm information about Elizabeth Andrews born 1735. Her father is reputedly John, MP for Devizes, though I can't find confirmation of this.

Regards,

https://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/ doesn't have a record of an MP named John Andrews in the 18th century.

There was a Townsend Andrews (1702-37) of Coulston Witshire, MP for Hindon, later MP for Bossiney.
b. 20 Nov. 1702, 1st s. of Thomas Andrews of Highgate, Mdx. by Sarah, da. and h. of John Townsend of Highgate, citizen and soapmaker of London. educ. Merchant Taylors’ 1717; Clare, Camb. 1718; I. Temple 1718. m. bef. 1731, Catherine, da. of Thomas Gibson. suc. fa. bef. Nov. 1721 and to Tytherton Lucas and other Wilts. estates of his maternal gd.-fa. John Townsend 1725

Thank you, Philip. I had seen Townsend Andrews, and thought his dates and location were good, but other sources say her father was John, and that he was MP for Devises, which he clearly wasn't!

There is an Elizabeth Andrews b 1735 in Wiltshire baptisms, but sadly, I don't have access.

Thank you, Geoff.

Father of that Elizabeth is Charles, and I'm convinced her father was John, even if his being the MP for Devizes is not true, so I think I can rule that one out.

Why do you think this?

Who did Elizabeth marry and where/when.  Sometimes this information helps us to track back
