Thanks for that Gavin, Ditchampton is about 2 miles from the Durnfords where my ancestors came from and is in fact a part of Wilton these days. Fonthill Gifford is just north of Tisbury which is about 10 miles west of Wilton. Alderbury is just south-east of Salisbury and about 7 miles from Wilton, Burcombe is the next village west of Wilton; so all these places are really quite close. Since I posted my message I have been told of 2 sisters for my ancestor Jone Rawkins b.1677 - Mary b.1671 and Susannah b.1681, both in Durnford. Anybody out there got some of the missing pieces of this puzzle please??
best wishes,
Bernard
