Thomas Faulkner 1740 of everdon.
- Everdon
According to Parish marriage records Thomas Faulkner (possibly falkner or other variations) is of Everdon, but I have never been able to find any trace of his birth in the Everdon registers. I belive from the LDS records he was born approx 1740 and died in 1810 in Newnham. He married 3 times to Ann Baucutt, Mary Rawborn and Elizabeth Haynes and had at least 3 children. I have been searching for this guy forever it seems so if anyone has any link to him or any suggestions of where to try next I would be most grateful. I have seen what looks to be a photocopied page on the net suggesting he was a woolcomber, but I am not sure of the source of this information. Thank you.
