Family 1 Sibella LETTIS, b. Abt 1767, Lenham, Kent, England , bur. 1 May 1788, Holy Cross Church, Bearsted, Kent, England (Age ~ 21 years) Married 2 Jun 1786 All Saints’ Church, Maidstone, Kent, England [2] - Springfield and Sibella were 1st cousins.
They had an aunt Hester who married Thomas Munn; Hester and Thomas had a daughter Mary and I guess that the Mary Munn who witnessed this marriage is her, a 1st cousin of both Springfield and Sibella, especially as the Munn family lived in Maidstone.
