  • Clarendon

    Hi

    I have googled this name and found references to it in Wawrickshire but not as a place name.

    Was there ever a place with this name or do you think it is a miss spelling of Claverdon?

    Thank you Manx

    hallo Manx and welcome to fTF

    What is your source for Clarendon? Rather than a misspelling, I would imagine its quite easy to misread a v for an r and vice versa.

      There's a Clarendon Road local to me in Christchurch Dorset. I've no idea why it's called it though

        This is the only likely place name I can see on a quick search:

        GENUKI: Clarendon Park, Wiltshire, England

        Where did you find it?

          Hi All

          Its a place of birth in Warwickshire. I am looking for a James Joiner the children and his marriage were Sheldon or Bickenhill. There are Clarendon references on Google but nothing as a place name. Claverdon is a little way away to the West or So of Sheldon.
          Could be that one. Elizabeth his wife was born in Charwelton in Northants. The other direction.

          I have searched the archive in Warwick and did not find James at Claverdon. Just to complicate things. I searched other parish records like Sheldon, and Solihull too.
          Still could not find him.

          Its the wife's side, I must!!!!!

          Thank you for trying to help.

          Manx

            James was born circa 1785 and his father was William. I am led to believe the one obvious record on the IGI is not my fellow. He died according to another source.
