 Set As Default Person

• Name	Mary GOATHAM
  Relationship	with Teresa Ann GOATHAM
  Baptised	10 May 1702	St. Laurence’s Church, St. Lawrence in Thanet, Kent, England
  Gender	Female
  Buried	20 Mar 1766	St. Laurence’s Church, St. Lawrence in Thanet, Kent, England
  	KFHS transcribed data (on CD29) from the PRs for St. Lawrence in Thanet  contains an entry for the burial of a widow Mary WITHICK, on 20 Mar 1766. There are no other entries that I can find in the KFHS transcribed data for any W(i/y)thicks or similar in St. Lawrence, 1559 to 1837 (marriages), 1898 (burials), 1938 (baptisms) . I suspect that this is the burial of this Mary. It is the only burial of someone with this surname in St. Lawrence PRs, 1559-1898,

  Married	4 Jun 1688	St. Laurence’s Church, St. Lawrence in Thanet, Kent, England
  	From PR image (on FMP, viewed 10 Dec 2012): "Edw Goattam & Susanna Curling married the 4 June" Whilst there is no indication of marital status, the entry immediately before shows "Daniel Stephens & Wid. Mary Cocke ..." (my emphasis) which may suggest Susanna was a spinster, although her son Edward's reference to "my brother John Curling" and a family to fit with John being her son suggests she wasn't.
  Offspring	Son Robert?
  	In 1731 there was a Chancery Court case in which one of a number of plaintiffs was Robert Goatham, a butcher of St Giles in the Fields [London]. I'm not certain who this Robert was, but it seems quite likely he was a son of Edward and Susanna. 1. This family had links to London - their son John and daughter Mary both married there. 2. There is a gap between known children, with baptisms every other year 1689 to 1693, then none until 1702. It seems likely they did have more children born during this gap. 3. Son John named a son Robert. John was into using family names '96 his first son was named Edward, his father's name, also that of a brother, then he had one named John, presumably after himself. But why did he use the name Robert? I have no close relation Robert in his or his wife's family. Could it be because there was a missing brother Robert?
