Finding the origin of William CLARINGBO[U]LD

There are a few CLARINGBOULDS and variants listed on the Romney Marsh Baptisms index

Thank you bearkat    I will certainly check those out.  Yes - there sure are LOTS of ways of spelling the name   

[AJ100]

Quite a lot around the Deal/Walmer area with varying spelling depending on how far back you go. CLADINGBOWL, CLADINGBOWLD, and so on.

Thank you AJ100
I can envision my hunt becoming a one-name study as I try to collect all the "possibles" for my fellow

I am looking for a possible missing link in my Sandy Family.  They appear in Chartham in the late 1600s and I have found quite a few in St Dunstan, Canterbury (1564 to 1683) but as yet have not been able to cross the divide.   

Stop rambling and get to the point. 

Whilst going through the St Dunstan PRs yet again I noticed Claringbole (+ variations)  There are quite a few in St Dunstan but I am afraid I didn't take any further notes apart from the first one.

This was the marriage of Richard to Jane Beek 20 May 1627.

Maybe another one to put down for further reference. 

Regards,
Tony

  Thank you Tony

I will add that one to the list as well - thank you for the note.
I've started collecting all the Claringbolds (+var) from the censuses and if I ever get time will not only attempt to follow up my William (HOW I wish he'd left a will!!) but start a study of the name.  Just got to get through the next 30 years to retirement, first

Strewth Prue!

30 years to retirement.  Knowing that, I am not sure if it shows you are doing something you enjoy, or the exact opposite! 

It’s twelve years since my first early (for one day) retirement.  Hated the tick box culture my job had become.  Eighteen months later terminated my temporary contract; left work Saturday noon and was on a plane to Brisbane the next afternoon.  Whoop, whoop! 

Did go back about 6 years ago for three months; the lure of filthy lucre; plsssst.    What is the saying “Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.”  I was still there over nine months later before leaving after ten.  I didn’t quite jump on a plane the next day; it was about a month, this time, before I headed to Oz.  My bolt hole in times of ………. 

There I go rambling again. 

Another one for you to file away for later reference.  A marriage at St George’s, Canterbury dated 26 April 1736 between William Claringbold and Jane Sparks which took place under Licence.  The marriage can be found on Family Search but not the detail that William was of the Parish of Hougham and Jane was from Capel-le-Ferne. 

Best wishes,
Tony

Thanks for the further lead, Tony

Yes, I'm doing something I love, but I'm also "only" in my early 40s, so unless we hit the jackpot between now and 70-ish, I'm doomed to work 

P.S. Am from SEQ originally. Just been up in Brissie this weekend for a wedding.  I do miss it.

Hi,
Just wandering ! the surname is quite common to the Faversham area since about 1147 a prior was appointed with the name of "Clarembald" there is a margarett Claringbould burial for 1644 in Faversham also there is an area called "Lady Capel" if it may be of help.
