Hello Beryl
Have you made any more progress on your Bradford Abbass George Chant
Is there any connection to George Chant who married Ann Hallett
in 1824. I have just been contacted by another new Chant researcher tracing
this line.
regards
Michael Cheeseman

Subject: [CHANT] Reading Settlement Papers
Hi,
By any chance can anyone help me out?
I have been trying to read the settlement papers for John Chant dated 6
December 1800 in Piddletown. (Film No 1596309 Item 41, Piddletown Poor
Laws). I cannot read the script. It seems to say he was born at Brampton,
Somerset the son of John Chant and moved to Puncknowle then Piddletown and
Low****thon where he was a molecatcher. His father now lives in Leuyon,
Dorset. John Chant (the younger) is a legal parishioner of Odcombe
(Somerset?) County.
Has anyone looked at these papers and can translate more clearly what it
says
than I can?
Thanks
Sherron Biddle
