Welcome to "Bratton Fleming". If your forebears lived there, then I hope you will find some interesting information here.

A wealth of historical records going back more than 300 years exist for Bratton Fleming and are fascinating sources for the family historian who has traced his/her "pedigree" and is now moving on to write a family history. These pages will provide a glimpse from my own records - and perhaps tempt you to make that visit to the Record Office / Library in Barnstaple or Exeter.

Please Email me if you can provide information for these pages or if you would like more information etc.
