    Notes 
    • living in Bear's Cove Lane, Dartmouth in 1841

      Since the baptism of his son William gives the mother's name as 'Mary' I thought William had married twice, but as William junior seems to have been born the year after Wm senr married Joanna, and his gravestone shows his mother as being Joanna, I think probably the PR has an error and 'Mary' didn't exist.
