Judith Simpson baptised at Tewkesbury on 3 Mar 1683 did not marry Francis Glover. She married Richard Hanbury. She died at Tewkesbury in Feb 1740/41 and left a will.
Thank you for the information.

I expect that what’s happened here is that there are two Judiths (or one Judith and one Judeth) that have been misidentified as the same person, one of whom matches the information in your comment, the other of whom married Francis Glover and had a son with the same name.

In trying to track down how this misidentification happened I’ve found a FamilySearch profile with just “Judeth”, no maiden name, as the wife of Francis Glover; which leads me to suspect that someone saw that, found a Judith from roughly the right time and place, and incorrectly assumed from there that Judith Simpson was Francis Glover’s wife; in which case Francis Glover’s wife may not even have had Simpson as a maiden name.

I’ll go ahead and resolve this in the obvious way: disconnect this profile from both Francis Glovers, and add a new mostly blank profile for the Judeth that should be connected to them.

I’d appreciate it if you’d add a source citation for the will.

That works well, thank you Matthew. I'll do a profile for her hubby and I know how to connect her to the big tree. Cheers, Elizabeth
