Of these, Jane & Ann ran a school at their home, Boxen Hedge, Petton, Devon & Martha married Robert Briscombe, a baker.
I have been researching my LUXTON ancestors for over a decade now so thought it was time to put all the information in one place for all to see. I have had a lot of help along the way especially from all the wonderful people at the Luxton FHS
