Devon / Re: William Furneaux baptised 1579, Paignton: Son of Henry Furneaux
« on: Friday 27 January 23 18:21 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I've yet to pick through all the messages here. I am looking for Richard Furneaux ( more than one generation of) & Ann daughter of Richard, 1620s-1690s, and maybe an Elizabeth. More than one generation marrying/ being born Furneaux in Buckfastleigh and earlier in Paignton.
Wanted to say to Robin Redbreast - Christian Furneaux * second wife, 'son in law' as in beaufils in french, can be for 'STEP' son as well as 'husband of' daughter. I suspect 'in law' used in both those senses in late middle ages/ early modern times.
And I can see I will return to this thread. Have found similar discrepancies on Ancestry trees.
Have now spotted a Richard, son of Sybil in Buckfastly, mentioned in thread.
Thank you for info.
