Burgess and Hearne in St Mary Bourne, Hampshire
« on: Monday 06 April 20 14:10 BST (UK) »
Hi

I am hoping someone here might be able to help me locate a possible christening for my ancestors Timothy Burgess and Mary Hearne in the St Mary Bourne area of Hampshire.

Timothy and Mary were apparently married in Whitchurch, Hampshire on 24 May 1680. They had four children born between 1681 [Timothy] and 1690 [Martha].

Several online trees give a christening date for Timothy as 1655 in Hurstbourne Priors and name his parents as William and Mary. However this William and Mary are listed as being born and dying in Woolstanston, Staffordshire which is over 100 miles away [130 to be exact] so that is unlikely to be correct although Timothy's parents might still be named William and Mary.

Both Timothy and Mary were probably born in the 1650s or 1660s.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Matt
