    • imgs on FMP (prob PR and BT) - BT shows Heline Row

      If there were any children of this marriage they may well have been baptised in Haccombe. However, the PRs only go back to 1687 (I think this is just as an old transcript, that the register no longer survives); I need to see if BTs survive from an earlier period.
