Hi All I have been trying to find the births for Tom, Dick and Harry the notorious Highwaymen from Burford. The histories say they were from Fulbrook, it does not say they were born there. I have looked at both the Fulbrook and the Burford parish registers and found two brothers Richard Dunsdon b1745 and Thomas Dunsdon b 1754, but no Henry (Harry). These are a possibility but not conclusive. If anyone on the list knows anything about these three gentlemen I would like to hear from them. Many Thanks Richard
Richard, I can't find the source right at the moment but I seem to have read somewhere that one of the three brothers had a nickname so may not have been christened by the name given. Of course it could also be that his baptism was never recorded anyway. If I find anything I'll send it on.
