Barton & Harris in Bideford

[brian stocks]

I am researching the family of my Grandfather Alfred Barton and my Grandmother Alice Maud Barton (nee Harris) married 1901 in Bideford. I would be interested to hear from anyone who has these names in the Bideford area. Also interested in the surnames Fisher, Alford, Lake, Grant and Allen. These are the married names of my Grandfather's sisters.

I have a great grandfather who was, apparently, named William Isaac Lake Travers. A year before his birth a William Isaac Lake died, so I assume he was related to William's mum who was a Lake before her marriage. Her name was Ann. I also have many Harris's in the family, my great great grandfather was Thomas Harris and my great grandmother was Sarah Ann Harris before her marriage. Don't know if there is any link. Both are common names.
