  • Name Rebecca JEANS 
    Relationshipwith Teresa Ann GOATHAM
    Gender Female 
    Buried 18 Nov 1751  Charles Church, Plymouth, Devon, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 27 Jan 2016)
      "[18] Rebecca Symons" - under heading 'Burials in August 1751' and subheading 'November'
      I think the burial was probably this Rebecca, but it could have been her daughter. Unfortunately in the register around this time a relationship to father, husband etc. was not shown.

    Other Partners: Alice BASTARD  m. 18 Feb 1706/07 
    Married 1 Aug 1721  St. Dunstan and All Saints’ Church, Stepney, Middlesex, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • I think it fairly safe to assume that the Ænæas who was married to Alice BASTARD subsequently married a Rebecca. The younger Ænæas whose first daughter was named Alice Bastard SYMONS then gave 3 more daughters the same names that an Ænæas and Rebecca had used about 20 years earlier.
      I can't find the marriage of an Ænæas and Rebecca in Plymouth; hence I think Ænæas may have moved to Wapping before returning to Plymouth. 

      From PR entry, this marriage  in Stepney in 1721:
      "1721 ... August ... 1 Æeneas Simmonds of Wapin Distiller & Rebecca Jeans of same place Spinster"
      (from PR entry on Ancestry; brief details also on FMP from Boyd's index)

      The crazy way in which Ancestry order search results* makes it difficult to be sure, but there seem to be no children of Ænæas and Rebecca baptised in the London area (in those parishes whose PRs are indexed on Ancestry, or on FamilySearch, as at 27 Jan 2016), nor a burial of Ænæas, which means I can't rule out the couple who married in Stepney as the couple on my tree, and adds weight since it looks like they moved elsewhere.
      (* Searching for a name similar to Simons, father's Christian name Ænæas; Ancestry list all those with the exact surname first, including those with a father's name nothing like Ænæas; given the common surname I tried lots of variants of Symon(d)s rather than looking through the thousands of results Ancestry produced, but may have missed the variant needed)
