Help with Burt records from Barbados, Church Records, 1637-1849

Question

Courtesy of Brad Stauf, I understand Ancestry.com has a collection "Barbados, Church Records, 1637-1849." 

Hoping to learn about the specifics of early (1637-1660+/-) baptismal, marriage and/or burial entries for surname Burt, perhaps also as Bert or Birt. 

Thank you for any assistance you are able to provide.--Gene  

Edited to add: There is a related G2G "Resource for those with family traced to Barbados. Marriage, Baptism, and Burial records Free!" citing Cook, K. (2016) The Barbados monument collection. The Monumental Archive Project. URL: http://katherinercook.github.io/MAP/collections.html. I am checking that now. (Thank you Tina Simmons). Follow up, I found no relevant Burt/Bert/Birt entries in the list at http://monumentalarchiveproject.com/archive.html .

Couple of "Burd" marriages too but no detail like name of parents or anything else helpful so hard to say if it was this family and even if so, doesn't shed light on the Burts of Taunton.

Thank you, Brad.

May need another FSP to document the Barbados records. --Gene

Answer 1

Gene:

I searched the database.

I found the equivalent burial listings for Giles, Richard and William: 

https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/66758:9788?_phsrc=qcN44520&_phstart=successSource&gsln=Burt&ml_rpos=1&queryId=ce22cbf40d3f1e48ce378be3ad8311a5 (Giles Burt)

https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/235602:9788?_phsrc=qcN44518&_phstart=successSource&gsln=Burt&ml_rpos=2&queryId=ce22cbf40d3f1e48ce378be3ad8311a5 (Richard Burt)

https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/529831:9788?_phsrc=qcN44519&_phstart=successSource&gsln=Burt&ml_rpos=3&queryId=ce22cbf40d3f1e48ce378be3ad8311a5 (William Burt)

Nothing turned up for Birt and, for Bert, I got a Margaret, daughter of John and May D_bert, baptized on July 26, 1663, in Christ Church:

https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/429329:9788?_phsrc=qcN44523&_phstart=successSource&gsln=Bert&ml_rpos=2&queryId=ee071cc9e9f1d772fdfa71b5f5fa8a7c

The "D-bert" is interesting but the handwriting on the original record is crystal clear and written just that way.

Comments

P.S.   I got curious and also turned up an old Notes & Queries (1925) reference to Richard Burt in Barbados in 1638:

https://www.google.com/books/edition/Notes_and_Queries/D6ggAAAAMAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=%22richard+burt%22+barbados&pg=PA119&printsec=frontcover

Along with a lot of snippet references on google.  Happy hunting.

Hi Richard,

Thank you for the comment. Have a copy of the referencef from Notes and Queries memorialized.

It seems an array of what should have been hopeful research notes became claims, again and again, as the years went by.

Thank you again. --Gene
