Aside from these, there are no Beadal (or any variant thereof) marriages recorded in this parish for the years 1712-1837; nor christenings between 1813-1874, so they must have been born and married outside the parish, with the exception of this one family. SIGGLESTHORNE I've found 3 Co(u)ltman marriages in this parish: John Coltman m Sarah Beadall 03/12/1737 *I assume this one is of particular interest to you* Ann Coultman m John Snow 28/08/1769 Elizabeth Coltman m Thomas Dennis 06/03/1742 There were no Co(u)ltman marriages in the period 1813-1836 in this parish, nor any baptisms in the period 1732-1812. I have however found the following baptisms for the period 1813-1850: Francis Coltman bap 03/02/1739 (father John Coltman) Henry Coltman bap 26/06/1743 (father John Coltman) Ann Coltman bap 30/03/1746 (father John Coltman) John Coltman bap 27/08/1748 (father John Coltman) I would assume from the gap between Francis and Henry that a little Coltman probably died around 1741, but unfortunately I've not got the burial records for this parish to confirm that. Again as there were no earlier baptisms or marriages they must have been from outside the parish originally. Kate Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
