Name Christopher HALKE Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Bef 1559 - ** I do not know that Christopher was born before 1559 - at present this is a guess **
His father's will, though, confirms Christopher was a son of John.
The PRs only date from 1559, so John may well have had children whose baptisms were too early for their recrods to survive. It seems likely that Christopher could be one such.
He could have been born later; I have not looked at the registers (or images) to determine if there are any / many illegible records around this time. However, the fact his father mentions him before his other sons in his will suggests that Christopher was the oldest.

Five children whose baptisms I have seen match the 5 named in Christopher's will, so it looks like there were no others who survived him.
