      Looking at PRs for Charleton Blank seems to be a name rarely found there; I suspect Nicholas came from elsewhere - this Stokenham baptism seems a likely candidate

    • I've not found the baptisms of any children of Nicholas and Willmot, but looking at microfiche of the PRs I have found most baptisms 1691-1699 unreadable. Most readable from 1700 - none found from this date.
    Children 2 children

    • I don't know that this marriage was of this Nicholas, but as he had become a widower nearly 2 years before it seems quite likely. No entries around this time in Charleton PRs show 'widow' or 'widower'. If it was him it was quite possible he was marrying a widow and that Mary's maiden name was not Wannell.
      If it wasn't him it could well be a son I haven't discovered (due to the illegibility of baptism entries in the few years just after his marriage to Willmot)
