Hnery Elcock of Har' and the other henry Elcocke 1560s Alveley
« on: Wednesday 30 October 19 05:42 GMT (UK) »
Kia ora

I am trying to establish whether these children all belong to this couple.  Somewhere I read that there was a Henry Elcock of Har’ , not sure who he was but perhaps some of these children were his?  Perhaps this Henry is the Har' one.  Not sure what Har' means also.  I have Francys dying prior to the birth of at least the last one.

Any help appreciated.

On this parish register transcription there is a Henry Elcock of Har', James Elcocke of Hard', Thomas Elcock of Hard' and James Elcocke of Hardwicke. I'd suggest that Har' was simply an abbreviation for the place-name Hardwick.
