| 30 Mar 1755 | Joan WINGATE | burial | no age given | I also have this transcribed as 1730 or 1750 | OPC |
| 1764 | Stephen WINGATE | settlement certificate | Stephen Wingett, sergeweaver, Joan Wingett his sister and Ann Wingett,
her bastard daughter. Parish of Legal Settlement St Nicholas (Shaldon). |
Looks as thought this Stephen is the son of Stephen born in 1728 above. I don't know why their settlement should be in Shaldon. | DRO: ref. 3419 A/PO12/ |
| 19 Jun 1785 | Ann WINGATE | marriage | Spouse: Robert MOORE. Both OTP*, by Banns. Both made their mark. Witnesses: Willm BENNETT & John RORK | Is this the "bastard daughter" of Stephen's sister Ann above? | OPC |
| 14 Sep 1786 | Joan WINGATE | burial | no age given | OPC | |
| 08 Jul 1787 | Stephen WINGAT | burial | no age given | OPC | |
| 10 May 1804 | Matthias WINYETT | marriage | Spouse: Elizabeth HANDFORD. Bachelor and spinster both OTP BY BANNS. Witnesses: Matthias WINGETT, Snr (his mark), J. Wetherall. | What appears to have happened here is that Mathew married
Elizabeth HANDFORD in Stokeinteignhead in 1808 and had two children.
He then died about four years later - we don't know how - so the widow and
her children became chargeable to the parish.
The settlement examination was obviously to see who was going to pay. They must have decided that it was to be Elizabeth's parish of birth - presumably Widecombe - and she and the kids were sent there. |
