Look Up Help - John Long Born 1729
« on: Friday 27 December 24 19:21 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

Would anyone be able to support and help identify the parents of John Long please?

From ancestry & Find My Past I have John baptised 1729 in Hilperton, Wiltshire.

John married an Ann(e) Swain in 1758 in Hilperton - not identified Ann's DOB as yet.

John & Ann had four children;

John born 1762
William born 1765
Betty born 1769
Charles born 1778

Is this your John LONG, or the next generation?

"Died, at Hilperton, a few days since, Mrs. Long, relict of Mr. John Long, formerly of that place."
   Monday,  Apr. 19, 1830
Publication: Salisbury and Winchester Journal

There are also a number of mentions of John LONG of Hilperton issued Gamekeepers Certificates - 1801, 1803, 1807, 1808.

Is this your John LONG's baptism?:

11 May 1729 at Trowbridge, father - Robert LONG.

Such a common name in the area, it's tricky. I see a number of trees on Ancestry have John LONG's parents as William and Joan, though they don't link to a record showing these names.
