Hi
I have some information on John Froud/e who was a piano maker in London but am not sure where he came from originally. It is an unusual name though.

Hi
I have a James Froude who married an ancestor of mine. James was born at Stonehouse, Devon in 1799. I haven't researched the Froude family yet as he is not a direct ancestor of mine, but I have come across the Froude name a few times in the South Hams area of Devon.
Regards and Happy Christmas,
Siskin.

Hi deb
Yes......my James Froude married Elizabeth and lived at Aveton Gifford.
My GGGrandmother is Elizabeth's illegitimate daughter Mary Thornton Scobel who was born in 1825, before Elizabeth married James.
Thank you very much for your suggestions as to who James's parents might be. that is a great help and gives me somewhere to start from.
Many thanks, siskin.

Hi Julie
Thank you for the email addresses
I am lucky to live near enough to the Devon County Records Office at Exeter to visit occasionally, but I might be glad of your suggestions if I need a "lookup" and have no plans to travel to Devon.
Many thanks for your interest,
siskin.

Hi
I am following this in the hopes of a connection to my pianoforte maker and noticed that there are some email addresses in the post. We are asked not to do this in case they are picked up by spammers. You can either send them by personal message or click the modify button above your post and replace @ with AT. It is possible that a moderator will do it for you too.
Must have another look at my John and see if I can get him back to Devon!

Interesting thread if you ever tie any Devon FROUDEs up with FROUDS in Berkshire please let me know
This is what we have found about the name
The Name Froude.
Readers’ Digest Encyclopedic Dictionary.
A descendant of Odin.
or place in Kent called Frode in 13th Century.
P.J. Reavey’s Book of Surnames gives Froude — wise.
Froud, Froude, Frowde, Frude. — ? Bapt. ‘the son of Froud’(?). This name has troubled me much. There is not a trace of it in the Hundred Rolls and other contemporary records, so far as my researches have gone. Mr Lower, however, has an important note upon it. ‘The epithet frode, wise, was applied to more than one eminent Northman’ (v. Laing’s Chronicle of the Sea Kings of Norway). In Domesday we find a Frodo, described as ‘fater Abbatis’ (Bury St Edmunds), and he had a son Gilbert, called ‘filius Frodonid.’ This is a satisfactory statement as far as it goes. I wish I could light upon some intermediate links.
