      "John the sone of Edward Light & Joan his Wife was Baptised. 30th. day of September 1722"

      There was a John bapt 31 Jul 1731 at Walkhampton, son of Walter and Amey, BUT a John was bur there 29 2 1796 aged 73! Given the children I know of a birth around 1723 would seem more likely. (This John was a tailor and died of the cold.) Thus would seem to be the one bapt 1722 Sampford Spiney
