Title: Henry Freeman
Post by: mafsef on Saturday 10 March 07 17:25 GMT (UK)

I'm trying to find references to Henry Freeman (b.1505 in Irchester, N,hants; d. Apr. 29 1585  Irchester). His father was James Fremingham and grandfather was John De Fremingham. Somewhere along the line the De Fremingham became Freeman and perhaps the De Fremingham is corrupted from French roots.
Any info would be gladly recieved.
Thanx.

Thanx Sandy - I've touched base with the Irchester people and who knows what might transpire. They did offer one suggestion to follow up - Freeman endowed school in Wellingborough, so I've posted a question.
