« on: Thursday 27 June 19 10:07 BST (UK) »
Luke BUNTER m Jane WILLS in Mylor, Cornwall on 20 Feb 1722.

I have been unable to find his baptism in Cornwall OPC, Findmypast, FreeReg and Family Search, these last 3 on a country-wide basis. Can anyone help, please?

Previous post here re burial etc

https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=814892.msg6760345#msg6760345

Any idea as to his age when he died to give a clue to his birth year?  Looks like it could be 1700 or earlier

Thanks.

I have assumed, based on the date of his marriage, that he was born c1700, and I've searched back to 1680. Maybe I need to go back further.

I have a burial in 1735, but this could equally-well be of his son; no indication of age.


Probate was granted in 1748, re Luke BUNTER of St Gluvias, but the documentation was destroyed in WWII.

I've now extended my search back to 1660 without success.

Thanks - very  interesting. This Luke probably is an elder brother  (bap 1 Jan 1762, St Gluvias) of my ancestor, Elizabeth BUNTER (3 Apr 1775, Budock), the two parishes being only just over a mile apart. It's their grandfather, also Luke (c1700) who's untraceable at present.
