Good evening Listers and Charles, From the Dorset 1861 comes this entry(?) 175 1861 West Knighton, Dorset cottage John Stermey Head Mar 39 Agric Labr Puddletrenthide Deborah Stermey Wife Mar 41 Wife Winfrith Eagle [Wynford] Emma Stermey Dau 9 Dau Dulish [Dewlish] Leonora Stermey Dau 4 Dau West Knighton Mary Dau 2 Dau West Knighton The problem is DEBORAH was married to a ROBERT STURMEY. I know the surname is unimportant but are ROBERT & JOHN the same or is his name double barrelled perhaps? Both birth years are the same approximates 1822. Is it possible to check the PRs for Piddletrenthide for a birth/baptism please to see if one or the other or both are present? Richard Parsons --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
