Worcestershire / Re: Dingley family of Cropthorne

Thanks Neil;
I had a feeling there was no connection because I couldn't find any "real" documentation.  I have learned to usually not trust family group sheets, etc.  I try to stick to actual historic documents and public and town records. But thought I had a chance to check things out.
So, I'm not too dissappointed.  I just shudder at all the misinfo out there and how many people have this connection in family trees and perpetuating it.  I spend most of my genealogy time trying to independently document what many people take as gospel.  Well my roots are deep in Pilgrim America and England, Ireland, and Wales. So I'm sure I have some English cousins out there somewhere.

Thanks again,

Kimm

Hi all!
I am quite interested in this family. My initial research shows I am descended from Sarah Dingley (my 8 g grandmother), who it appears is the great granddaughter of Francis Dingley and Elizabeth (Bigge) Dingley.
I am hoping to find documentation, confirming Francis and Elizabeth married and were parents of John (married Sarah [perhaps Chillingworth]) who emigrated to Lynn, Massachusetts (before it was USA) in 1635.
They were the parents of Jacob who married Elizabeth Newton in Marshfield, Massachusetts.  And they were the parents of Sarah.
I have some info that states Elizabeth was the daughter of Thomas and born in Lench wick, Norton, Worcestershire.
Can anyone confirm this or tell me where I can find some documentation on it?
Any dates that can get filled in for me is much appreciated.

Your American "cousin"
Kimm
