Ancestors from Bottesford
My great great grandparents grandparents originated from Bottesford. Their names are Jane Hallam and Thomas Gildin. I believe they moved out of the area. However, I have managed to get as far back as the 1500's in Bottesford with some of the branches of my tree.
I have visited the delightful place and wandered through the graveyard and into the church. I was able to identify some gravestones as being my ancestors, which was exciting.
I think the main name I have been fortunate in connecting with is Lamb, but I have Gilden, Burgess, Rear, Hart, Stokes, Brazen and Taylor that have appeared.
If there is anybody who is looking at their tree and perhaps could give me any snippets I would love to hear from you.
When this terrible situation finishes I intend to make another trip to see if I can find anymore out
