HAIST OF BARWICK IN ELMET

 

The extant parish registers of Barwick in Elmet do not cover the 1640s and Richard and Elizabeth (Haigh) Haist may have had more than one child. Another likely son is Philip Haist of Barwick who had a daughter Elizabeth baptised in 1670 and buried in 1675.

 

The registers of nearby Saxton in Elmet record the baptisms of Frances and William, children of a Richard Hast, in 1650 and 1652. Richard Hast and his wife Frances were both buried at Saxton in 1657/58. William attended St John’s College, Cambridge, and became rector of Mount Bures, Essex.
