On our transcriptions of Nempnett Thrubwell Burials the burial of Richard OGBORN, (my 5 x great grandfather) is noted as on the 24th December 1782. Even our brilliant Graham Payne has been beaten by the words used in the parish record to describe him so he had put that he was "a * man". The image on Ancestry has me stumped as well - Please can someone take a look to see if they can decipher the writing. The nearest I can get is "a dropsical man"? but I've no idea what follows that. All suggestions welcome. Thank you.
Looking for any information about the wedding of Peggy Pearce (19 years) and Robert Miller (26 years)- American soldier with the 1260th Engineer Combat Battalion. Her father, Cecile Pearce, was deceased.

Hi - I am contacting you from Australia where I am undertaking a family history search. My paternal family, (Meadows) was very active in the horticultural field and entered the annual competition held in the Winter Gardens. They also owned a nursery in Hutton in the mid 60's. I would be very grateful if anyone knows any information about my family, George (Grandfather), Betty (Elizabeth, grandmother) and James (father). They attended various mayoral events and won Weston's best flower garden in 1955.
