Hibbitt & Barnes Family History


John BURDON - of Gorford

Very little is known of John BURDON except that he was the father of Jane Burdon who was baptized in Black Torrington, Devon, in 1718. Jane's baptism details, as transcribed by FamilySearch, state that John was known as John Burdon or Gorford. This might actually read as, or mean, John Burdon OF Gorford.

A property known as Gorford still exists today on the edge of Black Torrington and this can be seen on Google StreetView below.
