Europe / Re: Kuhn 1733

Well, I was close ... in places 
Wonderful. Many thanks, Zefiro. I checked the paper map, and found the next village to be Grossenritte - now on the outskirts of Kassel.
Now to trace both parents further.
Thanks again. Bryan.

Thank you, gc1, but wrong parish I'm afraid ... Besse is well over 100km NE.

I think this is the birth/bpt of Anna Elisabetha Kuhn, daughter of Hermann Kuhn labourer, 28 Mar 1733, at Besse, Hessen (my 5xgt grandmother).
I'd be grateful for a full transcription, please, so that I can find mother's name, and also relate some of the script to other entries I have found. Thank you. Bryan.

Lancashire / Re: JONES of Earlestown in your tree?

Sorry Rowan, circumstances have made it necessary for me to change ISP, hence a new website address.
https://www.sugarbakers.co.uk
So the page you were looking for is ... www.sugarbakers.co.uk/loc-earles.html ... but also check the database as I've since added more info from the later censuses.
Thank you for thinking of the website, and I'll be happy to add anything further.

Other Countries / Re: -Germany Johanns birthplace
« on: Monday 14 April 25 13:32 BST (UK) »
Hans Bahlow's book "German Names" does not include Quinsel, it does, however, include Quensell ...
" Quensell ... 'a bulbous vessel'? "
... so, sorry, no help with location.

There is no reference to Dickens in Hans Bahlow’s ‘German Names !
