I suppose you've looked at this birth in Crediton district, Devon?
It's not that close to Bickington but the only Peter Tarr in Devon June qtr 1848 Crediton Page 10 Vol 97 Forget it, it's too late after the baptism

Do you think the GRO might have wrongly recorded the surname ?
Births Dec 1845 Farr Peter Newton Abbot 10 128 According to genuki, Newtown Abbot is the reg district for Bickington. You could ask the local RO to check the entry to see if what the surname is in their registers. Di |

Well done Marquette
What confuses me is: I looked at the map and Bickington is MILES away from Newton Abbott

Well, I am only going on genuki's info, I don't know Devon at all. If I google, I find a town called Bickington just west of Newton Abbot, right up against Dartmoor National Park.

Thanks Marg & Di,
Bickington is a little village just outside Newton Abbot. I'll try the Farr ref that Di found. I never thought of mistranscriptions at source!
