Stogumber
Michael,
Thanks
for your email.
The
"@Durborough" shows that the entry in the register actually says 'Williams alias
Durborough'.
As you've probably seen or know
already, the 'alias' often seems to refer to some
connection
with the other surname
either as
possible bastardy way back, or legitimate marriage but keeping the second name
for
some
reason, possibly to do with inheritance.
I noticed
that there was a Durborough name in the marriages in Bicknoller in 1683 so there
must
have
beenpeople of that name in the
general area.
Durborough is
still a small hamlet near Stogursey so I suppose its possible that there could
have
been
aWilliams who came from Durborough in
the distant past. In one of the Stogursey registers,
the Abode
entry hasDubra written in but I'm
sure that refers to Durborough and I've put that in in
brackets.
Glad
you've had some success in tracing your people.
Cheers,
Martin
The connection may
well stem from the marriage listed on the IGI of Nicholas Durborough
&
Frances Williams on
October 24 1701 in West Bagborough, Somerset, England - Grandparents
of Nicholas?? (Michael
