A
footnote: Some people have tried to link The James Anthony FROUDE tree to the
FROUDE family in New Zealand that came from the Dartmouth area. While I am sure
there is a link somewhere, major mistakes are being spread on the Internet
largely because of the My Heritage On line Genealogy site, which invites people
to make the links. In particular the John FROUDE (FRUDE) born about 1750 who
married Margaret BURGOIN on the 6th January 1774 at Cornworthy has been linked on
My Heritage sites to the Rev. John FROUDE born 1743 Modbury.
They
are two completely separate people. and the origins of John FROUDE (FRUDE) who
married Margaret BURGOIN remain unknown.
The
Rev. John FROUDE (1743) married Prestwood Love LEGASSIKE on 22 March 1769 at
Modbury. They had 11 known children between 1769 and 1788. The Rev John
FROUDE's ancestry is listed above.
