However, a Mary Anne Howlet married a William King in Great Brickhill in 1815. William is, at the moment, not connected to me (but I'm sure he will be, eventually). Do you have a Mary Anne in your Howlet/Howlett family who might have gone to GB to be married?

    1. Bucks advice on Howlett family
    2. EMMA HUNNISETT
    3. Hi All, After a two year jaunt into other parts of the country I have headed back this way. I seem to have followed in the footsteps of my ancestors, who travelled the length and breadth of our fine country with the development of the railways, though I, unlike them have not yet reached my goal! For two years now I have trawled census, birth records, marriages, deaths in the hunt for William and Henry Howlett. They have taken me on what appears to have been a wild goose chase into Norfolk where I remained for a long time as another Howlett family almost matches mine - the Howletts of Watton..........BUT........nothing concrete. William Howlett was born about 1834, give or take a couple of years - his age varies slightly between marriage record and all census details (but then I like to forget my age at times!). William was born to a Henry Howlett somewhere in Buckinghamshire - on all census the place is named as Little ? (just my luck that I cannot read the second word!), I believe the place starts with a 'W'. My first question to you all is - what could the place name be? I have a copy of the name on the census should anyone like to take a look............ Finally, for now, the names that appear so far in my research are: Howlett, Sandall, Huggins, Bowditch, Cole Any advice or help will be gratefully received Emma

    1. RE: Numan WILLIAT and SQUIRREL

    3. Many thanks for Numan. It's a pity the transcripts don't go back beyond 1686. I have will of Numan died 1676 of Weedon only son Numan is a beneficiary as are the poor of Biddlesdon. Numan d 1676 had wife Hester and another son Hugh who must have died before 1676 (he may belong to a previous wife Frances). The Helmdon website refers to (in connection with Astwell). 1669 Numan Williat senr of Biddlesdon and Hugh his son 1668/70 Numan Willett of Biddlesdon 1673 Numan Williatt Senr of Biddlesdon and Numan Junr his son. I suspect your Numan may be son of Numan junr. You didn't by any chance see any MISSENDENs in the Biddlesdon transcript?

I remember someone mentioning it on the list a few weeks ago, and as it's not a common name I thought it might be helpful to whomever was seeking the information: Baptism at Biddlesden: 1688/9 24 Jan Numan son of Numan & Elizabeth WILLIAT Also, I seem to recall that someone was researching the surname SQUIRREL: Burial at Biddlesden: 1695 25 May Elizabeth SQUERRELL Those appear to be the only references to these two surnames in the transcript (which is unindexed and covers roughly 1686-1811 with some gaps).
