Biography

Carpenter, Lived near Donhead St Mary, Wiltsire, England

He was born about 1733. (unsourced)

Thomas Horder married Elizabeth Cutler in 1760. The marriage banns, posted in September 1760 in Donhead St Mary, show that Thomas was living in Donhead St Mary, Elizabeth in Edmondsham, Dorset, and they were both unmarried. [1] The marriage took place in Edmondsham on 12 October 1760. Thomas was a carpenter and was able to sign his name, but Elizabeth signed with her mark. The witness was Edward Cutler. [2]

Thomas and Elizabeth's children, all baptized in Donhead St Mary, Wiltshire, England: [3]

  1. Ann Horder, bapt. 4 March 1764
  2. Thomas Horder, bapt. 8 June 1766
  3. John Horder, bapt. 11 Dec. 1768, probably died young
  4. John Horder, bapt. 24 Dec. 1769
  5. Ruth Horder, bapt. 20 Jan. 1771
  6. Hannah Horder, bapt. 19 Dec. 1773
  7. William Horder, bapt. 13 Feb. 1774
  8. Rinaldo Horder, bapt. 7 July 1776

Research Notes

The parish register for Donhead St Mary lists a Rebecca, daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth Horder, baptized 18 July 1756. This was four years before Thomas married Elizabeth Cutler. Could this be the same Thomas, but married to a different Elizabeth? Possibly. The records show that a Thomas Horder of Donhead St Mary and Betty Small of East Orchard, Dorset, were married in Mebury Abbas, Dorset, on 26 Dec. 1753. [4] (Betty was a common nickname for Elizabeth.) A problem with this theory is that the marriage banns for Thomas's marriage to Elizabeth Cutler lists him as a bachelor.
