Find Ancestors

I have found the marriage for Mathew Bartlett and Joan Munding 24 May 1772 St.Giles Chedington, Dorset.
Their children were born Chedington 1773-1781 that I know of but there is a later connection to Somerset.
Can anyone please help with information as to who Joan Munding was.
I have tried various spellings and areas but cannot find anything on her. I did however find a Joan Bartlett died 1784 Hardinginton Mandeville, Somerset (where at least one of her children married in 1802), no age given so cannot say it's her.
Can you help please? if so it would be most appreciated.

Best wishes for the New Year to you all

there are Mundings in Loders

John Munding
England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975
christening: 1779 LODERS, DORSET, ENGLAND
residence: Loders, Dorset, England
father: Henry Munding
mother: Catherine

Assuming her maiden name was Munding ( or perhaps she was a widow when marrying Matthew Bartlett)
There are several trees showing that Munding is sometimes recorded as Munden.


May be no connection but ....

Name:
John Munden

Event Type:
Marriage

Event Date:
25 Nov 1806

Loders

Spouse's Name:
Amelia Bartlett

Sorry for delay in answering Ann and Mike, but thank you for taking an interest. I have considered the name Munden along with just about any variation of the name and spelling I can think of but cannot come up anything remotely similar. 'Manning' maybe but the marriage record clearly states Munding.
I assume that Joan would have been born c. 1750ish, taking into account when she married in 1772 and when she had her children but of course I could be way out, even so still no Joan Munding to be found.

So I will have to try and dig deeper.

Many thanks again for your interest.

I forgot to mention that the marriage record doesn't state whether spinster/widow etc., but have just found another record for a Samuel Munday who married 'J?' Munding in Yeovil 1751, trouble is that would make her a bit old I think.

She might have been born with one surname and then had it changed if her mother married/re-married

That is definitely another option Mike, thank you. Looking again at the 1751 marriage of Samuel Munday and 'J' ?Munding a note at the bottom says 'Bird als Munding', but would this particular person have been a bit old for bearing children late 1770-1780s? :-S
A closer look at these particular people is required I think ( providing I can find them of course).

There are some Chedington marriages (1756-1812) online on the Dorset OPC page, and the vicar seems to be consciencious in noting 'widow' or 'widower' by the praties' names so I think it's fair to assume that neither had been married before.

Quite a few Bartlett families in Chedington on the 1841 census.

Hi Beverly and Chris

Thank you for that information, certainly the 1784 burial is quite feasible as I know the at least one of the children ( 3x grt. grandfather) lived in Hardington Mandeville so I guess it maybe fair to assume the parents may have moved there with the children prior.
I thank everyone again for all the help given.
