Hi MatD30,

I am related to Richard head as follows:
Head (7 Gen.) → Puckeridge (1 Gen.) → Chancellor (3 Gen.) → Sheppard (4 Gen.)

I would be exptremely grateful if you would send me coppies of any Head Wills that you have. any other information on the Head Line would be very helpful also.

Thanks in advance

Hi Michelle,

Thanks again for the help. I have a slightly different tree. I don't know if I have errors. I have Richard Puckeridge married Sarah Head (1733-1766)
Sarah had a brother William Head and a sister Elizabeth Head who married John Pottinger.

Sarah's husband Richard had a sister Elizabeth Puckeridge who married William King. He also had a brother John Puckeridge who married a Hannah ?

I don't know if all this is right.

I am still trying to find out which Thomas Head was knighted.?
By the way thank you for the reference to the victoria County History of Berks. I have found it on the Internet. Excellent refererence.
Thanks again for your patience, Malcolm

Michelle,

Thank you very much for the clarification of the HEAD tree. Just one question. Is the following right:

Thomas Head = Elizabeth Allington
Thomas Head (1667-1758) married Ann, then married Rachel Gregory. Is this the Sir Thomas Head that was knighted.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Michelle,
Thank you for the prompt response. I am beginning to fill  in some of the gaps.
You refer to a book written about the people of Compton which explains how the money came to Elizabeth Head.
do you have the title of the book so that I can search the internet for a used copy perhaps.

Thank in advance

Malcolm

Michelle,

Thank you for the great clarification. Here is what I have at the moment as I best understand it:

Henry Head = Elizabeth House (Children: Sarah, Elizabeth, William)
Elizabeth Head = John Pottinger (Children: Head Pottinger, Richard Pottinger, Rachael Pottinger)
Rachel married John Palmer

Is this all correct as you know it?

Why was Rachael an Heiress? What about Head Pottinger and Richard Pottinger.

Unfortunately I have not been to Compton but I do have some photos of the inside of the church.
I live in the USA having left England in the 70's. Go back every year, this year hopr to visit Compton.

Thanks for your help, any additional information would be very much appreciated.
