Frampton Cotterell records are held at the Bristol Records Office (Winterbourne is an adjoining Parish) - or you could try Rootsweb Bristol & Avon. My late mother-in-laws Thomas OSBORNE 20 September 1837 - baptism records states parents Samuel & Mary - abode : Frampton Cotterell - but was christened at Bitton.

I am a 'Wiltshire Moonraker' with Gloucestershire grandparents.

There are 'other' Players on census' who were born in Winterbourne - which may help with family groups.

Ancestry public members tree - does have Ann PLAYER c1810 Frampton Cotterell - parents John PLAYER & Mary nee (ANGEL) who married James POOLE

citation: 1881 Census, Ashleworth Glos. James POOLE 72, & (Ann POOLE - 71 - born Frampton Cotterell). This family are in Ashleworth from the 1841 census.

Hello Mary

Tk you so much for replying to my PLAYER family. My George Player is definately the Winterbourne Census of 1871 and 1841 as originally I found that on Winterbourne Family History Site but I have been trying to get back further than George born abt 1804/1805 Frampton but on the family history site for Winterbourne some Churches they obviously havnt got records for 1800 to say 1806 but my searching lead me to Richard and Elizabeth in Newnham, somehow! then I thought maybe Frampton could have been Newnham in those days. Anyway I am probably way off course trying to put 2 and 2 togehter without access to micro films etc.

I think I need to find someone who has records for Frampton Cotterell Churches to find Georges record of birth/baptism that is if born Frampton means Frampton Cotterell or could mean Frampton on Severn. Not sure. Anyway I will track him down eventually and tks again. Are you from Wales? as I unbelievably found my Gt Grandfather Eli Players bible in Newport area with a present day relative. I just wrote to to 5 address from B.T.Phone Book and the first person to email was a relative!! Amazing. Hope I have made sense as had a hectic week with daughter and grandson (3)yrs!! and slightly weary!!

Thank you Slowhands for replying to my message. Sorry not to have been very specific but I think I will have to go back to my original findings of my Player family in Winterbourne, Gloucestershire. I have tended to rush things and put 2 and 2 together on my own and I could be way off line!! The trouble is there are two many George Players. I originally had George born 1805, but numerous names of where he was born, eg. Frampton, Winterbourne, Frampton Cotterell and somehow I have ended up in Newnham. I will get back to Winterbourne Family History Site and try and find George Player born 1805 on All Saints Church, Winterbourne. I dont have access to micro films etc. I started to try and get back further than 1805 which seemed to go back to Richard and Elizabeth in Newnham but I think I may have lost the plot!!! not being able to verify things. Angie Whites site at Tribal Pages first had George Player 1805 which should be my Gt Gt Gt Grandfather as she is connected to my side. Anyway I musnt go on as Im sure you are busy trying to unravel yours. I just need to get the experts to really unravel mine!! and I have hoads of info! and just cannot stop doing it!! Obsessed obviously!! P.s. If I ask for email reply, who pays? I only asked for that as not gened up on how to find things on the forums etc.

May get back to you later. Hope u are having a good summer. Summer every day here but can get boring!
