Mary or Maria Chant

[Jan Prit]

Hello everyone I hope you are all well. Trying to connect the right family to Mary or Maria Chant. Baptised 12/11/1721 South Petherton Somerset, she was married to a John Parsons bap. 10/12/1725 North Petherton Somerset on the 4/6/1749 North Petherton. Her father was John or pronounced Johannes Chant on her baptism, I think that her burial is 25/4/1777 Wincanton Somerset, would like help to make sure of my records, her mother etc.

Regards,
Janet

John Chant married Elizabeth Perren of South Pemberton in Martock 30 Mar 1714.

Thank you emeltom for your quick reply, I was making sure I had the right person, so many of this family include Mary or Maria, and I am unsure with Johannes or Johannis as a first name.

Regards,
Janet

The only other Chant baptisms in S.Petherton at the time are all listed as father being "Johannes" -John...the vicar seems to have "Latinized" names where he could.
John Chant married Elizabeth Perren -of S.Petheron- at nearby Martock on 30 March 1714. Mary Chant has a sister baptised as "Betty".

The marriage at N.Petherton has the surname transcribed as Cha**** or Chaney on FindMyPast records and as North Petheron is about 20 miles away from South Petherton, maybe this needs checking? .Off to work now- hope this is of use!

It's definitely Chaney (image on Ancestry).

Good Morning DRH123 thanks for your help I have continued on with the advice given and found a little bit more information about the Chant ancestors.
