EDMONDS of North WILTSHIRE

A summary of EDMONDS genealogy linking cousins Neville & others (in New Zealand) and Debra Edmonds (in Swindon UK)

I have identified some EDMONDS "dynasties" of North Wiltshire in the 16-17th centuries that probably produced our 5XG GF Jonathan 

5XG-GF Jonathan married Sarah Knight at Lydiard Tregoze in 1755  (the PR entry says both of L/T. parish), but his baptism has not been found.  Jonathan was buried in 1778 in the Lydiard Tregoze churchyard
