  • Notes  Married:
    • Although there were banns of marriage for William and Mary in West Teignmouth in 1806, their marriage took place in Exeter a few months later, with both of them shown as of the parish of St. Thomas the Apostle.
      From the PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 3 Mar 2022)
      ""

      Perhaps there was an impediment, hence marrying in a city parish, where they were not known.
      An impediment could also explain why a daughter of Mary's (Sarah), shown in the register as born more than 7 months after the marriage, was recorded as a Gotham and illegitimate. 

      I show Mary's other daughter who was baptised as a Gotham as having a different father, but she could have been a daughter of William Heath.

    Banns of marriage:
    • From PR entry (image on FMP)
      "William Heath and Mary Gotham"
      No parish shown in the banns register for either of the couple; was the priest just slack about recording the information (the name of the person who published the banns is also missing), or does this imply both were otp?
