Barzillai Denton

[Bethan]

Thank you ever so much Nicky, Bob +Valda, you have all been really helpful and informative, and have filled in a lot of gaps in my research, it looks as if family legend has got it wrong again, unless I am looking at the wrong branch of the tree.
Sorry that I am not able to thank you individually as I have not worked out how to do it yet, I am a bit of a novice on the computer, but thank you all for your help.
Best Regards Bethan

Hi Bob,

My Barzillai was definately male.

Barzillai Deacon b 1839 Fleckney, Leics  and his sister Barzillia Deacon born 1842 Fleckney.  They also had a brother Job and a sister Hannah.  Their Uncle Abraham founded the "Strict and Peculiar Carmel Chapel" in Fleckney.

There are several other related Barzillai Deacon males around the latter half of the 19th century.
