Title: Pilton baptism look-up Please
Post by: SueD on Saturday 13 September 08 12:40 BST (UK)

My ggg-grandmother Frances (Fanny) MARLING gave her place of birth as Pilton, Devon. Her date of birth, given her age at death will have been c.1774.

She married twice, to William LEY in Barnstaple on 4 Aug 1799 & then to John GLOVER on 1 Oct 1805 again in Barnstaple. I'm ssuming therefore that if she wasn't born in Pilton itself she was from somewhere in the Barnstaple area.

Thanks in anticipation.

Sue

Hi Robert,
I'm afraid that baptism is 40 years too early to be my Frances.
