Barfoot family from Charlton Musgrove

[tempogold]

 Hello
Unfortunately I have discovered the name Barfoot is more popular than i had thought.

William Barfoot was baptised 4/12/1825 in Charlton Musgrove  to parents Robert --Yeoman  and Mary( her maiden name unknown).
William is on the 1841 Census age 14 with his father Robert  for Shepton Montague . Robert is shown as a Farmer . No other family shown .
There is Poll Record for 1846 Shepton Montague which lists a Robert Barfoot. Unable to find any records after this date .

William marries Eliza Ruddick in 1863  ( Parents Henry Ruddick  and Elizabeth Singer from Midsomer Norton)  William and Eliza had 4 children. I am ok with tracing William and his family forward .

But would be grateful for any information on Williams parents Robert and Mary( unknown)  Barfoot and any siblings of Williams.

Thank You .

Interesting. And wondering about the Curate from Rutland. There are some trees with Barfoots in the Rutland .

I also found a marriage--and Bond record on Ancestry for a Dorothy Barfoot, from   Shepton Montague and  Daniel Simms -so wondered if she could be a daughter of Robert and Mary. ?
 The census returns for the Simms family are interesting . In 1841 In Charlton Musgrove. Other census returns say she was from Braunston, Rutland /Northamptonshire.
There is indeed a baptism 30/10/1814 in Braunston to a Robert and Mary Barfoot--not clear on his occupation --is it game keeper ?
