Father Richard NORTHMORE, bap. 1694, bur. 4 Feb 1766, St. Leonard’s Church, Sheepstor, Devon, England (Age ~ 72 years) Mother Mary WHITBOURN, b. 1705, d. 1765 (Age 60 years) Married 5 Sep 1724 St. Mary’s Church, Sampford Spiney, Devon, England - Also on DP transcripts - has Mary's surname as Widporn
Whi(t/d)borne was a common name in the Bishopsteignton area, i.e. the area the Northmore / Narramore family moved to Sheepstor from, but rare elsewhere.
There was a Mary Whitbourn baptised in Tavistock Abbey Chapel (Prebyterian) in 1698, daughter of Richard and Jane, but there was also a Mary Whitborne baptised in Bishopsteignton in 1696, daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth. (images of PR entries on FMP)
In 1721 there was a lease and release between Richard Whidborne of Dawlish, yeoman and Thomas Whidborne of Sampford Spiney, tanner regarding the property Foxsham in Sampford Spiney, suggesting a fairly close relationship between the two men. Had Thomas moved from Bishopsteignton?
At present the Whi(t/d)bornes are on the edge of my tree (and my ONS) and I am not actively trying to work out how Mary was and the links between those in West Devon and the Bishopsteignton / Dawlish area.
