  • Notes  Married:
    • This the only "Margery" about the right age to have married in 1784. She was born in Endellion, which is also evidence that she is the correct person for this marriage, but in the Phillimore extract she is described as a "sojourner", which means she was not from Endellion — but her family could have moved to another parish after her birth.

      The Cornwall Family History Society gives the marriage date as Aug 12, 1786 rather than Jan 24, 1784 as given in the Phillimore extract. A couple of submissions to the IGI give the 1786 date too, so that date has been accepted here.

      The Margery born in St Endellion has been combined with the Margery who had a baby in St Minver, next door, because there is no-one else to reasonably connect her to.
