Dening
Family History
The Dening Vault
| Richard (Tim) Dening could trace his family tree back
to the late seventeenth century. At this time, the Denings lived at Pitt House (built
1600, now Pitt Farm) near Cadhay, 2 miles from Ottery St
Mary, Devon, UK. Records show they lived there from 1690 (and perhaps before that) to
1878. The Dening Vault was built in the 17th century as a
last resting place for members of the family. It is located on the north west side of
Ottery St Mary churchyard in Devon, England. |
