For everyone who was following this story, and thanks to all those people who have helped in ‘the great Scott hunt’… I recently returned from the UK where I went to hunt for my great-great grandfather, Captain Arthur Henry Scott. I went to Honiton to look for his grave as we are pretty sure that he was buried there in 1942 aged 77. But there was no grave! Plenty of places where it would once have been but no more evidence.
However, and that’s the point of this, I did spend some time in the North Devon library in Barnstaple and wrote down some notes from the BMD books from a few parishes. So if any of the following is of interest to you, then drop me a line. I don’t have many notes, but I have some notes of BMDs taken from the microfiche and the transcribed registers (from 1551 onwards in some cases) for:
North Moulton – Moll, Moule etc.Leworthy, Harris
Ilfracombe – Parminter, Partmynter (lots of them) and some Ankey, Acky and Dennis/Dinnis
Hartland – Ashton, Dennis, Littlejohns, Nancekevill, Nancekivell etc. Neal, Burrow.
Barnstaple: Knill (some Bennett, Barnes and Slocombe but not very much)
Clovelly – Ashton, Littlejohns and Nancekivell, again only a little.
