Notes
The numbers at the right of the page are unique reference numbers.
        The source follows each piece of information. If the source is underlined a full citation will be shown
        when you hover over it. Click on any link to switch to that person's details page.
      
        Estimated dates of birth (treat with caution - they could be decades out!)
        :- where there is a marriage or children recorded, the date is estimated at 16-18 years before the earliest date; 
        :- where there is only a burial known, if the person or their spouse is described as "old", the birth is estimated at 50 years earlier;
        if they are described as "very old", the birth is estimated at 60 years earlier; if neither, the birth is estimated at 18 years earlier.
      
Estimated dates of death are given as a visual aid to point up whether or not they survived their spouse.
        Before 1752 the calendar year started on 25th March; dates where the year appears as, eg: "1650/51"
        show the year as it would have been given at the time (in this example 1650),
        and the year by the modern calendar (1651). Jan-Mar dates before 1752 which don't show this "double-dating"
        are from secondary sources which haven't made clear which dating system has been used.
