Title: JOHNS family of Bondleigh/ North Tawton
Post by: PATc2 on Saturday 01 October 11 12:33 BST (UK)

Have at last found my ggg grandmother's maiden name and marriage details, and that is where I am stuck.

She was Mary Johns, married Thomas Berry (of Crediton) in North Tawton in 1810. From later censuses I know she came from Bondleigh aka Bundley and born around 1790.

If anyone has any Johns family around Bondleigh to point me in the right direction I'd be grateful.

The 1851 census shows her birthdate to be ca 1785/6. Bondleigh registers are held by the Devon Record Office - see http://genuki.cs.ncl.ac.uk/DEV/Bondleigh/index.html. The DRO will provide research services for a fee. http://www.devon.gov.uk/record_office.htm
