STARLING -------- A genealogy of the STARLING family of County Cambridgeshire, England, from c.1550 to 1856 and concentrating on my direct line. Other related Starling's can be found in t-starlg.txt.

This material is public domain, unless specified otherwise in the sources, and cannot, by international copyright law ("Intellectual Rights") be copyrighted by a third party. I make no claim regarding the accuracy of this chart; the original sources are not free from error and a degree of guesswork is involved in genealogy. Last revision: 30/3/2005 (c) David Powell, http://roots-boots.net/ft/names.html Reference numbers are denoted by [..]'s and are listed at the end of each section (seperated by a line of *'s). Numbering begins anew with each section. Burrough Green is a small village in the far east of Cambridgeshire, near the Sussex border. Newmarket is a few miles to the north-east, in a small enclave of Sussex that protrudes into Cambridgeshire. 14. Edward (Eduardi) Starling, born about 1550, probably near Balsham, County Cambridgeshire, England.[1,2] Children of Edward Starling: * i. William Starling, born about 1575, probably at Balsham, Cambridgeshire.[1] ii. Anna Starling, baptised 23/5/1582, Balsham, Cambridgeshire.[3] [1] Information taken/extrapolated from baptisms of children. [2] According to Geraldine Cruickshank, William was born 1562, son of Thomas, and married Joane Thorpe (?-1631) in 1585. Thomas' last child was born in 1606, at which time Joane would have been in her mid 40's, an unlikely age for childbirth at that time. Also there is no trace in the Balsham area of a child born before 1599 in either the baptisms or marriages of Starling's born before 1600, which is inconsistent with a marriage in 1585.

Child: William (1628) of Balsham, Cambridgeshire.[5,6] [1] Information taken/extrapolated from baptisms of children. [2] According to Geraldine Cruickshank, Joan was Joanne Thorpe and married William 1585, Linton, Cambs. This is considered unlikely to be the right Joan. However, the Joan who was buried in 1631 is undoubtedly William's wife. [3] Information from Geraldine Cruickshank, . Sources include IGI and Cambridgeshire PR's.

[7] According to Geraldine Cruickshank, Thomas was the son of Stephen and Elizabeth, born 1745. Several factors indicate that this is not likely: Thomas, son of Stephen, would have been 32 in 1777, at a time most men of his class would have married around 25. Wood Ditton records also indicate Thomas remained in Wood Ditton, married Sarah and had at least one child, Thomasine, in 1778, which is incompatable with the list of children for Thomas of Burrough Green. Thomas of Burrough Green married Ann Turner, while Francis, also of Burrough Green, married Mary Turner, probably her sister. This strongly suggests a close connection between Francis and Thomas, most likely brothers. Stephen of Wood Ditton did not have a son, Francis (nor does the name appear at Wood Ditton). There is no baptisimal record for Thomas or Francis at Burrough Green, however their sister, Mary, was born there (Thomas also named his only daughter Mary), daughter of John and Mary. There are no earlier records of Starlings at Burrough Green and the only potential candidate for John is the son of John and Susanna of Wood Ditton.
