Title: Richard TAVINER born 1771 Biddestone, Wiltshire
Post by: ERT on Sunday 06 January 13 18:41 GMT (UK)

Hi

I'm still trying to track down Richard Taviner's parents, with little success.  He married Sarah Hulbert (born 1772) on 8th November 1790 at St Nicholas, Biddestone, Wiltshire (according to parish records).  I don't have a marriage certificate to find names of his parents.

Any suggestions?

(He had 5 children - Elizabeth (b 1791) , Amy (b 1804), William (b 1807), Chapman (b 1809)& Richard b 1812, all in Biddestone)

Hi Yourself,

Familysearch.org shows to following possibility;


https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NRG4-XQM

Richard's family (wife/children) is listed on the same site.

There is a tree in Ancestry that should help (unless it is yours)


Good Luck

Richard

No baptism in Biddestone for a Richard Taviner. There is a James & Jane baptising children around that time but no Richard.

Did find the following in the North Wraxall Baptism Transcriptions.

4 Feb 1770. Richard Taverner. Son. Richard & Rebecka. North Wraxall.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for that information.  I think that my parents found this Richard (son of Richard & Rebecka, North Wraxall) & they said that he died as a baby, so couldn't be our Richard.  Do you have a date of death for him ?  They could be wrong about this.

Thanks

Have no other info for deaths in North Wraxall.

You may already know but it looks as if Richard & Sarah had four other children, I will list them in case you do not have these baptisms.

8 June 1794. Ann Tavener. Dau.
3 Sept 1797. Jane    "         Dau.
5 May 1799. Jacob   "         Son.
24 April 1799. Issac  "        Son.

which I note has already been given

the microfilm scope of Biddestone is
Biddestone Parish Registers
BAPTISMS 1690-1909 MARRIAGES 1720-1829
 MARRIAGES 1689-1825
check Hugh Wallis on ancestry for the individual film details

The baptist church there didnt start until 1880

http://history.wiltshire.gov.uk/community/getcom.php?id=19  discribes Biddestone as being full of quakers and fanatics

an email to Swindon Archives or Corsham may resolve this

Or check Phillimores for a possible marriage

or find the quakers lists in the History of Wiltshire & Notes PDFs
for a possible marriage
