ALLIN family IFFLEY

[Hissey]

According to my records a John ALLIN married Elizabeth WHITE (of Steventon) in 1707 - probably Oxfordshire.  They had children John (d abt 1754), Richard, Mary (b 26 Feb 1711 Iffley),  Elizabeth and Anne.  I am trying to trace the family in parish records, but live some distance from Oxfordshire.  I believe the Allin family may have a connection with Littlemoore as well.  I have three generations further back for the Allins, but names only - no exact dates or places.

Any help gratefully received, thank you.

Hi, and thanks for that - unfortunately I can't tie in these with my known Allins - any info. on christenings for the family or the marriage would be great.

Hi,
I'll check the Oxfordshire records for you at the Glos Family History Society on my next visit and get back to you.

Thanks very much.

Hi Hissey

I have the Oxfordshire Marriage Index (OxFHS CD) but can't see your couple on it

However, I also have OxFHS PRs for Steventon and Iffley (and Littlemore) and will check those for you - probably tomorrow as it's quite late now.  You might already know this, but Littlemore didn't have its own church until 1836 so the events you're seeking wouldn't be recorded there.

Speak later,
Carol

Hi again Hissey

Bad news first – no record of the marriage of John and Elizabeth in Steventon or Iffley

Better news – the following baptisms are recorded in Iffley:

ALLIN   John      10 Nov 1709
ALLEN   Mary      26 Feb 1710/11
ALLEN   Elizabeth   20 Sep 1713
ALLEN   John      9 Feb 1715/16
ALLIN    Richard      28 Sep 1718
ALLIN   Ann      23 Jun 1721

All state ‘s./d. of John and Elizabeth’ but no address given.  The 1709 John could be the John ALLIN ‘of Lettlemore’ buried at Iffley on 16 Dec 1709.

 Also found a Steventon baptism for Elizabeth WHITE – 15 Dec 1678, d. of Richard and Mary.

Do you need any marriage/burial details for the ALLIN/ALLEN children?  I’ve found a few, and some of the entries mention Littlemore.

Hope this helps,
Carol

Which ties in nicely with the burial of John ALLEN at Iffley on 12 Dec 1740 (no other details on PRs)
