A fire in the C18th destroyed a century's worth of parish registers in Winterborne Kingston, Dorset. So my tree peeters out c 1760.
DNA matches produce half a dozen or so matches going back to Winterborne Kingston and the same period... for a quite different surname.
So I may have this surname in my past, but as I've never found wills, poor law, manorial or anything to take me back, I probably will never know how the surname relates to me.
Anyone else finding this?
