  • Notes 
    • BIRTH: Christening Date, St. Gregory by St. Paul's, London, England. IGI Feb 1988. Microfilm 375028, "St. Gregory by St. Paul's Parish Registers", Baptisms 1627-1651. London. LDS Family History Center, Salt Lake City, Utah.

      The younger siblings, Anne and William, also listed in St. Gregory by St. Paul's were actually baptised in St. Mary Magdelan Parish according to the record. St. Mary Magdalen Parish adjoined St. Gregory by St. Paul's but its registers did not commence until 1712. All six children may have been baptized in St. Mary Magdelan Parish but it was not noted for the first four.
      More information was contained in the entries for the younger children. The family most likely lived in St. Mary Magdelan Parish since at least two of
      the children were baptised here.
