Hi!
Can anyone help with any of the following?
I have a Jane Best marrying William Herron on 28th November 1775 at Pittington. William was baptised at Pittington on 1st January 1744 and buried at Pittington on 28th August 1787 (as a Pauper). They had the following children:
Elizabeth Herron baptised 21st April 1776 Pittington
Jane Herron baptised 1st March 1778 Pittington
Thomas Herron baptised 25th June 1780 Pittington
Eleanor Herron baptised 14th July 1782 Pittington
Cuthbert Herron baptised 24th October 1784 Pittington, buried 26th March 1786 Pittington
Alice Herron baptised 28th August 1787 Pittington, buried 22nd February 1789 Pittington.
Jane Best, Williams wife then had an illegitimate daughter:
Anne Herron baptised 10th October 1789 Pittington
I am unable to find any baptism for Jane Best or another marriage or death?
Also at Pittington there is a Thomas Best who i think could be Janes brother?
Thomas Best born 1754, buried 12 June 1801 at Pittington age 47 years. He married firstly Mary Herison (Harrison) at Pittington on 22nd November 1781. Mary was buried 13th July 1782 at Pittington. On the details i have it says Thomas was from Acomb, Northshire (?) which could be Acomb near Hexham?
Thomas then married Jane Taylor on 5th April 1788 at Pittington (baptised 2nd April 1762 at Sherburn, daughter of Matthew and Jane Taylor). They had the following issue:
Mary Best baptised 8th February 1789 Pittington
Thomas Best baptised 4th September 1791 Pittington
Jane Best baptised 11th July 1794 Pittington
Jane Best baptised 28th November 1796 Pittington
Isabella Best baptised 2nd June 1799 Pittington
The only other information i have is that there are two burials at Pittington;
Ann Best buried 25th July 1777 Pittington
Ann Best buried 13th August 1816 Pittington aged 77 years old (born 1739).
Janes daughter Jane Herron (born 1778) married at St Oswalds Church Durham in 1797 Barnard Sedgewick.
Janes daughter Anne Herron born 1789 married at Kelloe in 1814 John Brown. It states that Anne Herron was from the parish of St Oswalds.
Any help with any of the above greatly appreciated!
