Father William SKIRRETT, bap. 4 Apr 1624, St. Andrew’s Church, Whitchurch, Devon, England
, bur. 27 Jul 1679, St. Andrew’s Church, Whitchurch, Devon, England
(Age ~ 55 years) Mother Joane VENNING, bur. 12 Oct 1707, St. Andrew’s Church, Whitchurch, Devon, England
Married Abt 1647 - The fit between the grandchildren's names in the will of Francis Venning of Lamerton seems to indicate that this William married Joane Venning and not Elianor Twiner (Turner, as shown by Vivian).
Given the size of their family they must have married quite young; I doubt there were any, certainly not many, children born elsewhere before 1648 so probably born earlier that year or the previous year.
