It's not difficult to check the Dorset records, and it is a post-1700 profile, so sourcing requirements are less strict.

I expanded on the Dorset records reference.

 - However the/his birth date is also a death/burial date - = George son of Robert and Ann MASTERS  2 December 1764 ( https://www.opcdorset.org/AltonPancras/AltonPancrasBurs.htm )  - Anc is not a source , and I can not read it - -

 - Calculated birth date 1839 - 73 is 1766 , not 1764 , death of first infant , and second perhaps also named George , but neither seems to have a birth record in the OPC  -

Answer 1

Hi John,

You can also try https://www.opcdorset.org/ for the Bishops Transcripts, Phillimore Transcripts etc., I had a quick look at his wife Hannah, daughter of Matthew & Elizabeth Woodford (her profile say’s Woodsford) baptised 28 February 1773 born 16 Feb https://www.opcdorset.org/AthelhamptonFiles/AthelhamptonBaps.htm you will probably find most of the family on OPC, good luck.

Edit - perhaps also put the England tag on your post.

 - thank you Malcolm for the Links, which are now in his Profile - - but his baptism is still suspect - (and a 'sister' Susanna is a little wobbley when looking at FamSearch Tree) - -

cheers -

Using the guidance on the Sources FAQ Help yes.Melanie's changes to the profile prove that.
