He was one of seven known children born to Nicholas and Jane:

  1. Jane Oats, baptized 29 Sep 1770 in Ludgvan, Cornwall.[4]
  2. Nicholas Oats, baptized on 02 Jun 1774 in Lelant, Cornwall.[5] He was buried on 06 Jun 1774 in Ludgvan, Cornwall.[6]
  3. Nicholas Oats, baptized on 30 Jun 1776 in Lelant, Cornwall.[3]
  4. James Oats, baptized on 14 Feb 1781 in Lelant, Cornwall. [7]
  5. Sidwell Oats, baptized on 06 Jul 1783 in Lelant, Cornwall. [8]
  6. Eleanor Oats, baptized on 28 Aug 1785 in Lelant, Cornwall. [9]
  7. Mary Oats, baptized on 07 Mar 1789 in Lelant, Cornwall. [10]

There is another child born to a Nicholas Oats in Lelant, though the mother is listed as Margaret. No marriage data for. Nicholas and Margaret fitting this time frame has been identified on OPC Cornwall, and this child is nested in between the children of Nicholas and Jane. More research will be needed to ascertain who she belongs to. S. Grimaldi 14 May 2021.

  1. Ann Oats, baptized on 26 Apr 1772 in Lelant, Cornwall. [11]

Marriage

Nicholas and Bridget Thomas of Ludgvan were married by banns on 30 May 1801, in Ludgvan, Cornwall.[12]Their marriage was witnessed by Christopher Oats and George White.[13]

Children

They have one confirmed child together:

  1. Nicholas Oats III, born on 01 Apr 1802 and baptized on 25 Apr 1802 in Ludgvan, Cornwall.[14]

The remaining three children attached to this profile need review. One's christening locality is listed as Ludgvan, another as Illogan, another as Camborne, and one as Corbis Bay. There is a fifth child linked on FamilySearch whose christening locality is listed as St. Ives. The distinctly disparate localities hints at conflation, and more research into the children will be needed. S. Grimaldi 14 May 2021.

Oates-154 and Oats-447 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate, sourced documentation supports one Nicholas Oats born in the Ludgvan/Lelant area in Cornwall. Bridget Thomas had one husband. Please merge. Other profile unsourced.

Oats-447 and Oates-154 do not represent the same person because: I believe they are two different people - one is my relative but I haven't been able to confirm which one. So I put them both in the tree to be safe.

Have you researched to confirm this. Because the LNAB variation is incredibly common for the area. Additionally, you have estimate DoBs with Matching DoDs. If you have concerns about a merge, it’s best to open a discussion first before rejecting the merge. Additionally, we ask that duplicate profiles are not created deliberately; rather, one profile with research notes and investigation to confirm correct data.

Best, Sarah.
