M*CH*MORE One Name Study

SOUTHERN SOUTH HAMS

Tree 101. Early East Allington families (14xx - 1688)

There are many M*CH*MORE events recorded in East Allington in the period 1533 to 1688, but only spasmodic events recorded in the 18th century. Many of the events have been assigned to early Tree 09 and some to early Tree 05. The remainder are collected here, grouped into approximate generations. For later unlinked East Allington records, see Tree 152.

Note that the extant East Allington parish registers start in 1556 and, except for a few short periods, are in good condition. It is safe to assume, therefore, that missing events either took place before 1556 or in other parishes.

Underlining (if any) indicates changes made at the latest update.
