Hi Adrian, It is a great pity that ages are not shown in the burial register. I have claimed this Benjamin buried 1806 as the Benjamin baptised 05 Mar 1760 at Broadwoodkelly. His parents were John Vanstone and Mary Knight. He married Mary Chammings on 02 Oct 1788 at Broadwoodkelly when he was listed as a shoemaker. Benjamin and Mary had 8 children born in Broadwoodkelly, the latest Sarah baptised in 1802.  Best wishes Ruth ________________________________ From: Adrian <adrianp7@talktalk.net> To: devon@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, 3 February 2014, 9:30 Subject: Re: [DEV] BENJAMIN VANSTONE OF IDDESLEIGH Hello Linda Thank you for your very speeedy reply! Yes, we have been in contact before. I have many forebears from the area you cover as OPC. I am somewhat wary of the burial you have located in Broadwoodkelly. It seems a little strange to me that Thomasin would be buried in a different village to her husband particularly bearing in mind that her burial, which was later, was in their home village of Iddesleigh. It is a pity that the burial registers from that time do not include ages etc. Best wishes Adrian On 03/02/2014 09:15, Linda wrote: > Hi Adrian > > Think we have been in touch before.  I have found a Burial at Broadwoodkelly > for the following: > > 1809: Oct 29 Benjamin Vanstone - sadly no other details are given > > Hope this helps, > > Best wishes & kind regards > > Linda > > -----Original Message----- > From: devon-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:devon-bounces@rootsweb.com] On > Behalf Of Adrian > Sent: 03 February 2014 08:50 > To: devon@rootsweb.com > Subject: [DEV] BENJAMIN VANSTONE OF IDDESLEIGH > > Benjamin VANSTONE married Thomasin WEEKS in Iddesleigh on 27 April 1768. > Their children were baptised there between 1769 and 1778.
