A mother died 11 January 1765, two weeks after the baptism of two children. Her gravestone refers to leaving two children and a friend. One source (local history group) says father died in the same year. Where can I look for evidence of where the children were placed? Many family branches in the same village and no evidence that they didn't survive. (One could be my direct line)
This was at Bingham in Nottinghamshire. The inscription reads:
I phoenix like have made my end to leave Two children and my friend So to prevent Ensuing Crimes Nature laid me to bed betimes
