    3. Just re-iterating my interests in the HOUSE family from Streatley during the period 1682-1770. Robert HOUSE married Frances PARFITT at Enborne in 1681 and had six children in all: Robert and Frances were baptised at Goring, Oxfordshire, and Henry, Mary and Hannah were baptised at Streatley. A sixth child, John, was probably baptised at Goring although some of the parish records have not survived. Robert HOUSE died in 1706 and his wife Frances in 1726. Both are buried at Streatley. As for their children: Their son, Robert, married Sarah BAYLIE at Reading in 1707 and then returned to Streatley. Frances married John RUSH in 1710, who later became Sir John RUSH. John probably married a woman by the name of Jane, although I am still searching for the marriage entry. I think Jane died in 1738 and John re-married to Elizabeth POWELL in 1739 at Streatley. Elizabeth died in 1748 and John died in 1753, both at Streatley. Hannah was a spinster at the time of her mother’s death in 1726, when she would have been aged about 27. Henry may have moved to Hertfordshire and later Middlesex, although I am still researching this aspect. It is possible that he died in 1763 as there is a burial entry in the Streatley parish registers for a “Mr Henry House”. If anyone can add to this information, please let me know. Many thanks Doug Stewart
