I am transcribing baptisms from Find My Past for my Stearmans and Tonothys. I am currently going through "STEERMAN" and have come across an odd first name. It is the father's name and he resided in Ovington, Norfolk. His name is variously transcribed as 'Heshibiah' 'Heshelbah' and 'Heshetrak'. I'm assuming its a Biblical name but Google can't help. Can anyone tell me what the name might be? Many thanks, Susan Cater 4437 Stearman and Tononthy One-Name Studies

Hi Susan I think it is probably Hezekiah, 13th king of Judah in the Old Testament.
