      "Thomas Gotham & Susan Dewring mar 28o Febru'"
      The baptisms suggest that there were 2 children of Thomas were baptised about 3 months apart in Staverton. It's possible but seems unlikely this would be the case with siblings; were there 2 Thomases having a family in the parish at that time? The register does not seem to be a copy (each year is signed and the names / handwriting varies), and the entries are in order. Was an error made with the surname and one the child of a different Thomas? Or were they twins, the healthy one baptised in church, the sickly one at home and the date is a "received into church" date? All possibilities.
      In particular I show this Thomas having a daughter with the unusual name Protesia, bapt 1623; a Thomas had a daughter bapt in Ashburton in 1618 named Parteza. Did the Ashburton Thomas live for a period in Staverton - were these 2 with the unusual name daughters of the same Thomas?

      There was clearly at least the children of one Thomas being baptised in Stavertion before the marriage of this one to Susan Dewring (could be a child of the Ashburton Thomas).

      In Staverton burial register for 1627 there is an entry:
      "The Daughter of Thomas Goetham buried the _ viiith Febr:" - I don't know which daughter this was.

    Marriage Agreement 18 Nov 1654  Torbryan, 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 
    • "Novembr 18 An agreemt of marriage betweene Austin Circomb of Torbryan & Amy Goteham of Staverton was deliv[e]red unto me & published 3 sev[e]rall Lords Dayes at the close of the morninge exercise & noe objection against it"
      [Amy appears to have been changed from Amie]
      This was clearly written into the register later, as it appears immediately preceeding the marriage entry, and is preceeded by marriages after 18 November. I think it was probably written in at or just before the time of the marriage, as the JP who conducted the marriage signed the entry.
