Research Notes

An Elizabeth Newton was buried at Heckington, Lincolnshire on 27 August 1653. The parish register gives no other details apart from her name, so it is not apparent how old she was or whether she was a married woman. The register at this time (during the Commonwealth) provided little additional detail for relationship. There are isolated single notes of "Wid" "son of" and "the Elder" over a 4 year period on this one page. ^[4]
[1655] Elizabeth Newton was buried August 27th
