Don't overlook the possibility that she was born Cook and added on the surname Finnimore later (or should I say her parents did)

In Devon they often used mmn as a middle name, or previous family names.

Have only just read your posting but would be very interested in any information that you might have about Mary Buston. Have come to a full stop with John Buston from the same area - He would be my 4xgreat grandfather and is proving to be very difficult to find.

David,

As you mentioned previously that "Jacob Lane married elizabeth cooke /cook finnimore 10/10/1797 seaton & beer devon - Her birth as beer devon {not alphington as you found gael}1778??"

Where did you find that information so I can get my head around it?

You went on and said "Yet what you found for elizabeth does seem to make sense if so then my tree is wrong."

Not necessary if you found her full name Elizabeth Cook(e) Finnemore for the year 1778 that would be more likely correct. Did you have her parents names? Where did you get that information from?

Then you wrote "heres the children that i have on my tree from their marr
john 1798 beer devon
susanna 1800 beer devon
mary 1802 beer devon
elizabeth 1804 beer devon
mary c 1807 beer devon"

I'll look up the children,

Gael
