    Married Est 1716 
    • I have only found a baptism for Thomasin - I am assuming it is the right Thomasin, not only was it in Stoke Fleming, a neighbouring parish to Blackawton, but the date fits well with the date Thomasin married, plus it shows her parents as John and Wilmot and a John and Wilmot Bellamy were buried at a time consistent with being her parents in Blackawton.
      Although generally quite a common name there weren't many Bellamy events in Stoke Fleming or Blackawton or other neighbouring parishes, and it is clear that John and Wilmot weren't buried in Stoke Fleming.
      Given that all of their daughters married in Blackawton and their sons also lived there, it would appear that all the family moved from Stoke Fleming to Blackawton, or else that they always lived in the latter but maybe found it more convenient to have Thomasin baptised in Stoke.

      The names of Thomasin's siblings are from the wills of her brother Matthew and his wife Jane, which also name husbands, some occupations, and some children of their marriages. My ancestor Ann Burgoin was not married when Matthew wrote his will but was by the time Jane wrote hers, so it is clear that she was my ancestor, the Ann Burgoin who married James Hambling.

      The estimated dobs are based on a combination of the order in which mentioned in John's will and date of marriage. They may be reviewed and adjusted in the light of dates of childrens' baptisms and if any ages at death are found.
