I am researching the Wintours. Do you know of an Edith (Edeth) Wintour please ? She may have married Christopher Willoughby in 1634

Thanks

Although 2-3 years out-of-date - is there any way of obtaining details of the William Wintour's 1652 freehold details and, in particular, of his son Christopher. I believe I am descended from 'a' Christopher Winter/Wintour of Lindney whose son William was baptized in 1691.

I've found that Sir Edward Wintour owned several farms in Nass. His son, William ( brother of Sir John) bought the freehold of 3 farms leased to him in 1652 & he had a son, Christopher. This is probably the Christopher I am looking for
Another possibility is a Christopher Wintour who is recorded as having "a messuage & divers lands at Alleston"( which Sir John had leased in 1623 & bought the freehold of in 1659. This Christopher is mentioned as being a cousin by the son of Alice/ Agnes Wintour & Thomas Wilson
Thanks for the two replies Though as a computer novice I found it difficult to access the Gloucester info.

Does anyone have information on the Wintours who lived in Nass in the mid 17th century. I have traced my family tree to Christopher Wintour whose father was William but cannot work out which William Wintour this was
I have done extensive research on the Lydney Wintours & have numerous family trees if I can help anyone with their research.
