Hello again Pam You asked about your 9xggf: John Beaple, son of Richard Beaple and his wife Agnes, was baptised in St Peter's Barnstaple on 20 Jul 1546. Barnstaple is one of the NDRO parishes that are not yet digitised and uploaded to FMP but in the meantime GENUKI Barnstaple links to a 1903 printed transcription of Barnstaple PRs from 1538-1812 at https://archive.org/details/registerofbaptis00byubarn (The default PDF resists searching and is easier to navigate if downloaded to your hard drive but you can easily search the full-text option online, or download that too and search it with a smart wildcard text editor, and then navigate to the relevant pages of the PDF.) It includes: 1542 baptism, John, son of Ric. Beaple 1542 burial, John, son of Ric. Beaple 1546 baptism, John, son of Rich. Beapell 1550 burial, Richard Beaple 1567 baptism, Katheryne, daughter of James Beaple 1594 burial, Mrs. Angnis Beaple, widow Ancestry has 16 PCC wills for Beaple of which 10 in North Devon, including Agnes Beaple 3 Jun 1595 Barnstaple, widow, who mentions her married daughter Katherine. She also mentions a Cade family (that's "C" as handwritten in "children"). There was a marriage between Alexander BEAPLE and Annes CADE in Barnstaple in 1554 (IGI) so you need to consider how Angnis/Agnes was related to Annes. FMP has a Katherne [sic] BEAPLE, baptised Shebbear 1580. That 1595 will seems a bit late for a 1594 burial, or could that be explained (or exacerbated) by use of the Gregorian calendar? The spelling of "Agnes" is rather variable. The Devon Wills Project (free to view on FMP) lists wills that are known to have existed, giving some useful indication of who died where and when. Those Barnstaple PRs may also include variant spellings of Whythere, Whytehyere, Whyther, Whyter, Whiteheare, Whitehere, Whiteyr, Whitear, Whitter, Whithere, Wither, Whitherid, Whitehaire , etc, and may be relevant to your previous enquiry about the rector of that name. They might help to dispose of some of the inconsistent online rubbish about your Brown family. But they obviously do not include adjacent parishes like East Down that might be relevant to Barnstaple families. The usual sources do have indexed transcriptions from North Devon, probably taken from the IGI records. Finally, a few unrelated entries I noticed in the Barnstaple PRs: 1546 baptism, Annys, daughter of Cornys ys daft by the young Beapyll the millward 1599 Burial, Ellynor Pattrick, a hoore of fame In December, 1676, the frost was so great that the ouldest man then liveing then did never know the like, for it was so heard frosen that many were faine for to rost there meate fir to eat it because the[y] could not gitt watter far to boyle the pot. John Sloly, Clarke of Barnestaple. 1677 burial Mrs. Richard Roshier, widow ... And she gave me 20 shillings upon her will for a legasay and I have receaved it. And I would wish that all good Christans that are to be buried in Barnstaple that the[y] would doe the like to mee as this woman did if the[y] be abell. John Sloly, Clarke of the parish. [And a few years later he gratefully and solicitously recorded a similar legacy of £5.] Regards - Martin Beavis -----Original Message----- From: PMR via Sent: Friday, July 08, 2016 11:41 PM To: 'DEVON Mailing List' Subject: [DEV] John Beaple b. 1546 in Barnstaple Greetings Listers John Beaple, son of Richard Beaple and his wife Agnes, was baptised in St Peter's Barnstaple on 20 Jul 1546 - he's my 9 x ggf. Apparently his eldest child, Anne (8 x ggm) was baptised in St Margaret's Northam on 7 Oct 1584. So, hoping that they did the right thing, John and his wife (name unknown) were married before that date. Given John's age at the time, this may have been a second marriage, or there may be children older than Anne. I'd also like to find the burial of John and his wife, and also any information concerning his parents Richard and Agnes (surname unknown). Can anyone point me in the right direction please? Many thanks. Cheers Pam Beaudesert, Queensland, Australia
