  • Name Dorothy BELLETT 
    Relationshipwith Teresa Ann GOATHAM
    Born Est 1741 
    • ** I don't actually have evidence that Dorothy was the daughter of John and Dorothy, but it seems highly probable. Not only would she then be named after her mother, but there do not seem to have been any other Bennet / Bellet families in Slapton at this time. ** 

      Estimate based on date of marriage, and guessing that not much older than known siblings. However, given that not only has her baptism not been found at Slapton but neither has her parents marriage, there could have been other siblings I don't know of and so Dorothy could have been older.

    • Witnesses: At most marriages in Slapton up to this time a Robert Edwards was witness - probably Parish Clerk. (After this the name changes to Roger Edwards - I guess he took over)
      I don't know what the connection with John Kellond was. It is of interest to me since I had ancestors John Kellond living in Slapton at this time, and I believe it is the one bapt 1716, who was married to a Catherine (whose maiden name I don't know) who was the witness - the signature is very similar to that John made when he remarried in 1762.
      Interestingly, at that marriage a John Bennet (Dorothy's father or brother?) was a witness, so if there was a relationship (and not just a friendship) then it seems probable it was between the Kellonds and Bennett / Belletts.
