Thank Ann but i think if the parents of John Roberts 1775 are John Roberts and Ann Unkown ....... an unlikely match

Mark

Mark Report 15 Oct 2012 20:06

Found a possible marriage of parents a year before birth but unsure if correct

Is edward the surname sorry - ifso not the correct entry i would think

No just a second name. It has to be one of thier children as the batch numbers are the same.

Don't forget not many people could read in these years and they would'nt know if the names were entered correctly or not!

The bap[ for My Roberts female has the same numbers and My was probably short for Mary.

John Roberts - Ann Williams
