Where is Dunney?
« on: Tuesday 13 February 07 14:17 GMT (UK) »
Hi peeps,

I am looking for information on an ancestor of mine - William Baker born 1814. On one of the census' it says he was born in Dunney, Wiltshire but I can't seem find where that is.

Anyone know?
Thanks
Bee

Hi Bee

Which census(es) have you found him on?

Nothing obvious in Wiltshire, but it could be a farm or hamlet.

There's a Nunney in Somerset, relatively close to the Wiltshire border.
