Birth of a William Taylor in 1716

[carlT]

Hi, I'm trying to find a birth for a William Taylor possibly around the Luxborough area?
William married Sarah Burgiss/Burgess in 1743 in Luxborough
Anything on his parents would be a bonus a they seem to dry up from then on.
Thank you.

There is a baptism for a William Taylor 15 April 1722 in Timberscombe (4 miles from Luxborough) with parents William and Dinah.

I can find no other baptisms to the couple nor a marriage for them.

There are a number of births in the County for William around 1716 on freereg. How do you know he was born at that time?

Do you know if they had any children?

I looks likely that William & Sophia died Luxborough, there are burial on freereg but no ages or detail.

Hi, 1716 was a year that a realitive had against his name, so I wasn't entirely sure of this.
What I do know William and Sarah m in 1743 and had two children, Mary bapt Oct 2nd 1744 and Lewis, bapt Dec 6th 1748 both at Luxborough.
Sarah Burgiss or Burges was born in 1714.

Thank you Colin, great to pick up on the other children. Lewis I believe became Church Warden at Luxborough Church.
Like you say sadly nothing clear on Williams birth.
Regards to you both
