Death enquiry

[Gert in Oz]

Can someone check a death for me please, Ancestry says it illegible, but i think it says Swindon.

Also could this be Warnborough, as i have found a burial on the LDS pilot site ? 16 Aug 1840

oops better give you a name Robert Painter.

It looks like Swindon to me, Sylvia.

Thank you Finbar, would you know if that would cover a burial in Warnborough please.

Yes, it says "Swindon &c". It is FreeBMD's transcriber who would have put illegible, and that is because the FreeBMD transcriptions were done from scans that weren't as good as the ones that ancestry now has. The district's official name was "Highworth" until 1899 but sometimes listed as Highworth and Swindon, or Swindon and Highworth, according to GENUKI. And yes, that district did include Wanborough.

Do you mean Wanborough Sylvia?

Wanborough is only a couple of miles from Swindon.

ETA: Beat me to it Kiterunner. :d

Thank you Kite, that explains why i have Highworth on some of the baptisms then.

Yes i did mean Wanborough Finbar. Thank you.
