Hello again. It's been a fruitful day, and there was no one to disturb me where I was sitting today in the SLV. Not even Mona Lisa. I remember that tune, must have been about 1949 or so. Mal Hale on <mjhale.art@virgin.net> was looking for any info about Richard Grice christened 22 Feb 1618 and his predecessors at MYDDLE. Well, Mal, the Myddle regs were not indexed, but I managed to scrawl thru them, finding your Richard as listed: p74 22 Feb 1617/18 Bap. Richardi f. Rogeri Gryse de Houlston, Laborer, et Fortunae and: p63 9 Nov 1606 Bap. Marie f. Rogeri Wyste de Houlston, Laborer, et Fortunae So, he has a sister! Sad though, there were no other entries to be found of the Grices etc. at Myddle, though I did find a bonus for myself whilst skimming the pages (no index in these volumes!) and that was a mariage of one of my Mulliniex's from Ellesmere parish: 13 July 1709. Thomas Evans & Jane Mullineaux of Ellesmere, married. Mal, I still have to do the High Ercall registers. Continuing on with the Varnalls/Vernolls, etc., as I kept the Ludlow register at the book desk overnight and retrieved it today, we find: p408. 12 Apr 1664 Elizabeth d/o John Vernalls & Jane baptized p409. 26 Jun 1664 John s/o John Vernalls, Gentl. & Mary baptized p413. 24 Jun 1666 William s/o Mr. John Vernalls & Mary baptized p415 6 Jun 1667 Anne d/o Thomas Vernalls & Anne baptized p417. 24 May 1668 John s/o Thomas Vernalls & Anne baptized p429.
