Christopher Seldon OH's FFFFFFF
I need to buy some transcribed records from the DFHS to try to get more information about the Seldons.
Name - "official" name and what they were known as - Christopher Seldon Date and place of birth - abt 1725, Landkey, Devon Names of parents – Richard and Mary (nee Honnacott) Seldon Date and place of baptism – 6 May 1725, Landkey, Devon (from Family Search) Details of each of his or her marriages – to Jone/Joan (unknown) probably in Landkey about 1750 Occupation(s) – Ag Lab Addresses where they lived (including county if in UK) - and please list which censuses you have or haven't found him/her on (if s/he lived in census times!). He appears to have lived in Landkey all his life. All 6 of his known children were born/baptised in Landkey, Devon between 1756 & 1770 Date, place and cause of death – 1801, Landkey, Devon Date and place of burial – 27 June 1801, Trinity Churchyard, Landkey, Devon Details of will / administration of their estate - unknown Memorial inscription – unknown Son Richard Seldon ElizabethHerts kindly found some references at the National Archives online to this branch of the Seldon family, but I've been unable to confirm them yet. I'm still trying though!

Sue, this marriage took place in 1755, so 5 years later than you stated. However, I posted it as Tawstock is only 4 miles from Landkey and the name Jane/Jone could be interchangeable. (Am I clutching at straws??)
Groom's Surname:Seldon Groom's Forename:Christopher Bride's Surname:Adams Bride's Forename:Jane Year:1755 Month:Jun Day:10 Parish:Tawstock Town Or City: County: Devon Entry No.: Notes: Record source: Devon Marriages - Transcripts

 )I had seen that marriage before (I think you may have found it for me? )and I'm not sure whether it is 'mine'. I do have the stuff from Genuki, thanks. Sorry, I tried to multiquote and I can't do it today for some reason.

All 6 of his children inherited 1/6 of a property called Thorne Park in the Parish of Charles. This was left to them by a John Thorne-I don’t know his connection
