Very quiet, are we all sheltering from the rain ? Can anyone do a lookup for Sarah BONNER and/or family, apparently born Merton c.1823. She married Samuel MALINGS in Launton in 1850, but I can't find her on the 1841 census unless she is working for Samuel Hill, Innkeeper of Buckingham. The info I have been given from her marriage cert says Father = deceased. One clue. In the 1861 census she is living in Launton with husband Samuel and Susannah Bonner aged 79, unmarried, born Little Chesterton. Susannah's relationship is not clear. Perhaps she is an aunt. Thanks for any help Jon Malings, County Wexford. _________________________________________________________________ Have more than one Hotmail account?

Just to say that Richard Pargiter would not have been "unusually old" if he married aged 32 in 1699. The average age for males at marriage was around 25-7. It was unusual for people to marry below the age of 21 unless they had good reason to. Also, it might not have been his first marriage. Does the Banbury PR specifically say he was a Batchelor?

Now that Betty has got us started on Pargiter origins again, here are a couple more Pargiter puzzles that have me stuck. Richard Pargiter, carpenter, then of Wardington, married Elizabeth Mayho in Banbury in 1699 and died in Banbury in 1728. Parish registers and his will document these dates and his children. His birth is given in various Ancestry family trees and on an IGI record as 1673, but there is no baptism of a Richard in Oxfordshire in 1673. There is, however, one in 1667, in Tadmarton, of “Richard, son of Robert Junior”. Does anyone have any information to support 1673? If 1667 is correct for “my” Richard, it would mean he was 32 when he married in 1699 – unusually old. Robert Junior, I presume, is the Robert Pargiter who married Ann Hyeron of Tadmarton in Banbury in 1655. Most Ancestry trees have him as the son of Robert Pargiter of Greatworth and Phyllis Page, the son born in 1634 either in Greatworth or Tadmarton. Most of those same trees have Robert and Phyllis marrying in Tadmarton in 1629. I am having great difficulty documenting these events. There is no record of such a marriage in Tadmarton PRs. There is a Robert, son of Robert, baptized in Tadmarton in December 1633, but no evidence that he was the son of Robert of Greatworth. Robert of Greatworth went to Cambridge, then Lincoln’s Inn, and was a lawyer in London by 1627. He had attachments to London and Greatworth; Robert was buried in Greatworth, but Phyllis remained living in London after his death. There is no mention of Tadmarton in her will, though she left funds for the poor of Chelsea and Greatworth, and generally there is no actual evidence to associate Robert=Phyllis with Tadmarton. I am concerned that the generally accepted descent from Robert=Phyllis/Greatworth to Robert=Anne Hyeron of Tadmarton and onwards in Banbury may be incorrect. It could have originated in wishful thinking, creating a nice line back to the prominent Pargiters of Greatworth based on “Robert son of Robert” and Robert of Greatworth fitting the bill age-wise. There is also evidence of two Robert Pargiters living in Tadmarton Manor around 1660, and other property transactions, which would suggest some wealth even if they were tenants. I know others on the Banbury list have researched this line – has anyone found any evidence to support the commonly cited link to Greatworth via Robert=Phyllis? Or was the Robert who married Anne Hyeron actually descended from a chain of Tadmarton Roberts? One “Robert of Tadmarton, yeoman” was involved in a property transaction in 1647, while another was buried in Tadmarton in 1639. Perhaps these were the father and grandfather of the Robert who married Anne Hyeron. Any comments would be welcome! Thanks to all. Tony Pargeter Victoria, British Columbia

We are developing a website site which will be the basis of a book which we plan to sell with all the profits going to a Service Charity. The title will be something like: The wartime contribution of Deddington, Clifton and Hempton. Originally we had envisaged it to be simply about the War Memorial but we think that we should recognise all those that served in all the uniformed services. I do need your help and I hope that you will understand if I raise a series of related questions over the next few weeks. My first is to ask for the names of any Army units that were stationed in the vicinity. Strangely, the only one I know is the 396 US Artillery who were based in Banbury and flew their spotter aircraft from Wykham Hill but I have been told that there were others, mainly British in Deddington and Adderbury. Any info on or off list would be greatly appreciated. Do have a look at our progress so far http://www.deddington.org.uk/history/worldwars Thank you Michael Allbrook
