Thanks Jan. That’s where I found some of the Chardstock material.

Hi - I keep reading about how John's son Thomas 'eloped' and married his wife. I am struggling to find the evidence for this - only hearsay - can anyone help?
(I am direct descent of Thomas).

sorry, wrong couple. They married at Dorchester in 1724.... just looking for origin of the oft repeated story that he was the vicar of Chardstock....
