Family Bibles / Re: BASSINDALE/BASSINGDALE - North Lincolnshire
« on: Thursday 12 June 08 12:52 BST (UK) »
Hello,
Just browing rootschat when I came across your message. My mother's family were Bassindale (of Belton in Axholme) and, although I can't connect the names in the family bible that you have, it is interesting that it was found in Whitgift. One of my ancestors, Edward Bassindale married in Whitgift and I am assuming this was because his wife (Elizabeth Leggott) was from there. Though they are in different counties Belton and Whitgift are only a few miles apart so perhaps there is a connection - Bassindale is not a very common name.
