Pretty Family

Peter Report 28 Aug 2011 16:37

Hi there, my ancestor, Rebecca Pretty, was born in Maxey, Northamptonshire in 1791.

Her parents were Joseph Pretty (c. 1754-1831) and Eleanor Ingelow (c. 1755-1838); both are buried in Maxey, Northamptonshire.

It seems they were married in 1778 in Folkingham, Lincolnshire, and had a daughter Charlotte baptised in West Deeping, 16 miles south of there. This is all I know of them.

I would like to find out what happened to Charlotte and when and where Joseph Pretty and Eleanor Ingelow were baptised so I can look into their families.

Thanks,

Peter

Hi there and thank for this. Much appreciated. I already have a lot of info on the Smitheringale family, but what you have found back this up.

The information on Eleanor's baptism is very interesting. Is there anything for her husband's baptism?

I have searched and searched for Charlotte but still can't find anything.

Thanks again,

Peter
