4: Wiltshire where George Baster first appears

The English Civil War began in 1642 and ended in 1651 so George Baster born circa 1640, arrived on the scene when the country was about to be thrown into turmoil. It was a time when recording baptisms, marriages and burials were less important than surviving.  He appears in Wiltshire so it is with Wiltshire we shall begin his story.
