The family seem to be around Burnopfield so maybe a misspelling? But if we are writing what we see then I think potentially Bunishfield or possibly Burrishfield with an attempt to turn the 'n' into two 'r's with the dots above (I think the record above lends itself to Burrishfield better). Sorry am tired, hope this makes sense!

Scrumpy Geoff

We've been down the same routes and logic favours Burnopfield but we can't justify that from the text. You have nearly convinced me on Burrishfield but I'll leave it open and hope for words of wisdom from sek. Thanks for your input.

sek

Cannot throw any light on this one I am afraid. The original certificate and claim form do not help much. I would have read it as Burrish. A local pronunciation of Burnopfield?! I cannot find any reference to a Burrish or Bunish field. The nearest I can find is a Beamish.

sek

Actually on the claim form, which is presumably the first document, I can just make out Burnup Field. The down stroke of the p has got a bit mixed up with the D or December underneath it.
How about Burrishfield [Burnopfield].

Scrumpy Geoff

Yep, I think we can just about justify that.

Thank you all, Sek is correct use [ ] for any correct spellings

Scrumpy Geoff

Will do, but I still want to hang, draw and quarter anyone who puts an 'e' in the middle of Bridgwater.
