Member Since: May 2008 Posts: 28 Send Message	Thanks. When I visited Hampshire Records a few weeks ago, I noticed in the Overton Parish records that the year 1763 ws missing...maybe this is the problem. Is there any way of contacting St. Mary's parish in Overton directly? Could not find a telephone number for the parish online. He must have been born in Overton or Whitchurch, but nothing came up for Whitchurch in the year 1763! Just now found online the marriage record to Rachel Simpson was 4 April 1804, but no parents' names. Pallott's Marriage Records for Hampshire. Thanks for any forthcoming information! Laura

Member Since: May 2008 Posts: 28 Send Message	Can you look up the birh date of Thomas Burgess who was married to Rachael Simpson, date unknown assume married after birth of illigitimate child John in 1803 in Overton then married to Rachel Primer on Nov. 9 1819 in Overton, he was a widower. Found marriage record to Rachel Primer but no parents were indicated. Looking to find his parents' names. Children with Rachael Simpson were: John 1803, William 1805, Sarah 1806, James 1807, Anne 1809, Septimus 1811. Children with Rachel Primer were: James 1814, Charles 1816, George 1817. All records that I have found were from Overton Hampshire at the Hampshire records office. I also found a death record of a Thomas Burgess in Overton dies on 19 Oct. 1817, so that makes his birth date in 1763. Not sure if it is him. At his Charles' marriage, Thomas was deceased and no mother's name was indicated on certificate. Thanks. Laura Ottawa Canada
