| The second section shows only one wife for William, his widow Alice (a 1709), showing her as mother of William, Anthony, Anne & Alice. The first section shows that he married 4 times with more children with the first wife being their mother even though, if it is assumed that they were baptised soon after birth, the baptism dates would attribute the children differently between the wives. We make that assumption. | |||||||||||||||
