I'm hoping that someone can help me figure out where this town/village is located. I had found Easton in Parrish of Bridlington, but can not located it on a map. Has the name changed? My ancestors are mostly from Burton-Fleming. Are these towns close to each other?
Thanks,
Linda |

| You will find Easton on treasurehouse.eastriding.gov.uk page 146, square 1. failing that, if you look at a modern map of Bridlington, and find the B1253 road that runs from Bridlington, through Boynton, Rudston and Sledmere, it is called Easton Road at the Bridlington end. |

| I found the road (B1253) but not the Hamlet. Do you have any ideas as to where I'd look for information on my relatives, the year is circa 1630 to 1738? |
