Families of Ashton (near Roade), Northamptonshire,England


Richard Blunt [Parents] was born about 1695 in , , England. was buried on 12 Oct 1785 in Ashton, Northamptonshire, England. Richard married Ann Bull on 17 May 1730 in Ashton, Northamptonshire, England.

BIRTH since Judith Langhorn (March 2002) states that he and his father did a property deal in 1720, and that he was executor to his father's will in 1729. I have therefore placed his birth before 1700. In view of the date of his father's marriage it could have been as early as 1609, hence I have averaged these two dates.

MARRIAGE from Ashton parish records, NRO ref. 17p/10. Both of the parish.
