Title: Whatcombe
Post by: fairfax on Sunday 30 November 08 10:56 GMT (UK)

Hi

Trying to find out where BMD's for this small village, would have been recorded?
 Have done numerous searches on IGI, but to no avail.

Thanks Flojo, that's really interesting. It pinpoints the place for me. Old ground this for me as I'm actually looking for a death. The person is John Mills of Whatcombe, died before 1820. He had a t least one brother Richard who was born Swindon 1733 and lived at Fovant Wilts about 25 miles from Whatcombe.
