Eaton Bray has the marriage 2/7/1752 for Richard Cook of Eaton Bray and Elizabeth Wood of Edlesborough. x julia He is chosen as he has a son Thomas who is the only one we can find in the area of the right age (using Thomas' death age as a guide). Richard and Elizabeth almost certainly moved to Gaddesden, as they had no more children in E Bray (but Gaddes instead), and the death of Mary (d of R and E) in Gaddesden fits. Also death ages of both Thomas and his brother James fit the births in E Bray. could this be him?... TOWN PROPERTY - ref. BOR B/E CHAMBER LEASES FILE [no title] - ref.
