Treasure Chest Thursday -- 1856 Burial Record for Ann (Marshman) Richman in Hilperton, Wiltshire

It's Treasure Chest Tuesday - a chance to look in my digital image files to see what treasures I can find for my family history and genealogy musings.

The treasure today is the 1856 burial record of Ann (Marshman) Richman in the Hilperton, Wiltshire Church of England parish registers:

This is the Original Source record for this burial of Ann (Marshman) Richman.  It is Primary Information and Direct Evidence of the burial date, place, and the name of the decedent.

This is the burial record from the Hilperton, Wiltshire parish register for my 3rd great-grandmother, Ann (Marshman) Richman (1784-1856).  Ann's parents are as yet unknown, although I now have suspicions based on further study over the past three months.  She was born about 1784 in Devizes, Wiltshire.  She married John Richman (1789-1867) on 28 February 1811 in Hilperton.  They had 8 children between 1811 and 1825, including my 2nd great-grandfather, James Richman (1821-1913).
