My ancestors came mainly from Swayfield, but there are connections with Bourne, Spalding, and Grantham. Have my tree back to approx 1500. Anyone any info on this part of the family?

John was married to Ursula Ridsdale 11.06.1615 at St.Nicholas Church, Swayfield 11.06.1615. His father was a William or Thomas who was married to a Joanne Hull in the same church 10.11.1552. I have the grandfather as Richard married to a Barbara Bruntson (or a Margaret) 18.01.1533.

Looking for confirmation of these details or correction/elaboration.

Have found many mistakes on the familysearch.org. Also use ancestry and the peerage.com. Most of the data I have actually comes from the original parish records. Have had lots of useful details from genesreunited members. Now looking for secondary confirmation of what I have. Many Thanks!
