Note that his marriage to Mary Feake is listed as 1683- the birth of their daughter, Mary is 1676. The marriage date is sourced to a transcription of marriages- but the birth is sourced to an ancestry tree. Might there be a previous wife? Charles would have been 36 years old when he married Elizabeth Feake-- a bit old for a first marriage.
