Hello list Could anyone help with the marriage of John Luscombe and Elizabeth in Aveton Clifford prior to 1819? I have been to the grave yard at Aveton Gifford and have this info for anyone that may be interested. John Luscombe d 28.3.1834 aged 61 Edward Luscombe d 6.3.1905 60 Mary wife 28.8.1913 65 Mary daughter of Henry and Samuel d 19 12 1813 aged 12 Sarah wife of Henry Luscombe d 17 5 1833 aged 69 Edward son of Henry and Sarah Luscombe d 19.3 1816 aged 20 Henry Luscombe d 25.7.1845 aged 85 Lucy Luscombe wife of Henry d 12 9 1860 aged 70 Harry Luscombe d 25 12 1869 aged 79.

Carolyn, I'm not sure that this is the correct John and Elizabeth as the names are so common, but a John LUSCOMBE married Elizabeth YABSLEY in Aveton Gifford, Devon on 1.11.1793 It may be that these were all their children although the eight year gap between the last two makes me think that there is a possibility that Richard was the son of a different John and Elizabeth LUSCOMBE. These are the baptisms that I have 26.7.;1795;Elizabeth ;LUSCOMBE;Aveton Gifford, Devon;John LUSCOMBE;Elizabeth;40; 28.1.;1798;John ;LUSCOMBE;Aveton Gifford, Devon;John LUSCOMBE;Elizabeth;40; 11.5.;1800;Thomas ;LUSCOMBE;Aveton Gifford, Devon;John LUSCOMBE;Elizabeth;40; 24.4.;1803;Ann ;LUSCOMBE;Aveton Gifford, Devon;John LUSCOMBE;Elizabeth;40; 23.6.;1805;William ;LUSCOMBE;Aveton Gifford, Devon;John LUSCOMBE;Elizabeth;40; 19.6.;1808;George ;LUSCOMBE;Aveton Gifford, Devon;John LUSCOMBE;Elizabeth;40; 17.3.;1811;James ;LUSCOMBE;Aveton Gifford, Devon;John LUSCOMBE;Elizabeth;40; 31.1.;1819;Richard ;LUSCOMBE;Aveton Gifford, Devon;John LUSCOMBE;Elizabeth;40; 268;Ashford Thanks for the gravestone information.

My grandfather Alfred Samuel STEER was born on 1.11.1878 at Waterhead, Aveton Gifford, Devon, the son of Eliza Jane LUSCOMBE, a single woman His parents were married by banns in Aveton Gifford on 25.1.1879 - Jarvis Veale STEER (bachelor of South Milton of full age, a labourer) and Eliza Jane LUSCOMBE (spinster of this parish, aged 20). Fathers - William STEER (labourer) and Samuel LUSCOMBE (labourer). Witnesses - Andrew STEER and Sarah STEER (Jarvis Veale's siblings). If anyone knows anything about Samuel, I'd love to hear, he is an enigma.

Hi, I've been watching the LUSCOMBE dialogue on the list, and though I can't help with any additional details, I'm wondering if anyone can tie the LUSCOMBE families to the LUCKHAM family in the South Milton area. I have a Mary Luscombe LUCKHAM, born abt 1808, later married to Nicholas MOORE (1829 South Milton), then died of the cholera in 1832 (also South Milton - all courtesy of Ray). I guess Mary's mother or grandmother may have been a LUSCOMBE before marriage.
