Thank you to all who replied to my thread. Elizabeth GILLINGHAM was a 'red herring'. The tree is now complete!

You must have got back to William through one if his children. So which one? And who was the child’s mother?

As you will have noticed, Martha died in 1805

Ps. Get the other person to give you proof - not ‘thoughts’

EricaH, I have the marriage of William BARTLETT to Martha BALSTON (BALSON) on my tree as 05-Jan-1796. Someone else researching the main name on my tree thought William married Elizabeth GILLINGHAM.

Not sure how anyone not directly connected can make a judgement simply from the baptisms

What have you done about finding info concerning his marriage(s)?

What info do you have on your tree which caused someone to raise a query?

Derek

Derek Report 14 Aug 2019 18:27

Help please. I am having problems pulling some information apart. I haven't looked at this part of my tree for at least ten years until someone queryed William BARTLETT. What I have is:

28-Jan-1802; Christian BARTLETT (born 15-Jan-1802) daughter of William & Martha BARTLETT

22-Jul-1810; Ann BARTLET daughter of William & Elizabeth BARTLETT

Basically are these two William BARTLETTs different fathers?

Many thanks in advance.
