Treasure Chest Thursday - 1748 Burial of Grace Crabb (1690-1748) in Trowbridge, Wiltshire

It's Treasure Chest Thursday - an opportunity to look in my digital image files to see what treasures I can find for my family history research and genealogy musings.

The treasure today is the 1748 burial record of Grace Crabb in the Trowbridge, Wiltshire parish register:

The burial entry for Grace Crabb is the first entry at the top of the page of  "Buried 1748" on the image:


The transcription of the information on this record is:

"[1748] Aug'st: 14'th: Grace Crabb"

The source citation for this census record is:

Wiltshire England Burials, Trowbridge, Grace Crabb burial entry, 14 August 1748; imaged, "Wiltshire, England, Church of England Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1538-1812," Ancestry.com (https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/2682172:61187 : accessed 2 October 2024), Trowbridge, St. James with St. Stephen  >  Parish Registers > 1655-1760, image 288 of 350; Original data in Wiltshire Church of England Parish Registers, Wiltshire and Swindon History Centre, Chippenham, Wiltshire, England.

This is an Original Source record (because it is a church parish record book with information recorded as it occurred) with Primary Information and Direct Evidence of the name and burial date and place of Grace Crabb.

Grace Cox was baptized on 3 August 1690 in St. James Church in Trowbridge, Wiltshire, the daughter of Thomas and Ann (--?--) Cox.  She was buried on 14 August 1748 in Trowbridge, Wiltshire.  Grace Cox married Joseph Crabb (c1669-?????) in about 1716, probably in Trowbridge, Wiltshire.  

Joseph and Grace (Cox) Crabb are my 6th great-grandparents; they had at least 5 children, including my 5th great-grandmother Grace Crabb (1728-1769) who married William Noad (1722-????) in about 1722 in Staverton, Wiltshire.
