ANSTICE TOMPSON ALIAS SPICER OF MILVERTON
Michael Cooley, BA, MA - 15 June 2023

Anstice Tompson was married in 1599 to Thomas Bennett of Milverton, Somerset, England not to Thomas of Wiveliscombe. There's a 1627 burial record for her in Milverton (see sources). We can be certain of the following children because both she and Thomas are listed as parents on their christening records. Obviously, these were different families. (Note that Milverton is only about a 4 minute drive, a one hour walk, southeast from Wiveliscombe.) These records are catologued at the Somerset Archives as D/P/WIV 2/1/1 (Wiveliscombe) and D/P/MILV 2/1/1 (Milverton).
