Biography

This profile is part of the Whiting Name Study.

Audrea Whitinge was baptized September 28, 1589, as recorded in the parish register of St. Boltoph. [1][2]

That she is recorded in the Baptism record of the Parish makes one question which of the twins, lived the longest? If Audrey did indeed have a twin who lived longer where is his baptism record? And then there is her fathers will - see note below. "One of twins, Audrey was either stillborn or died later the same day. Her brother, Andrew, seems to have survived longer. No information about his life or date of death." - Carole Partridge

Further to this, Audrey is mentioned in the 1617 Will of her father as "Audrey, wife of Robert Wright". [3]

Hey Carole,

Working this line - do you have a source for the information about the twins? Read my blurb about it in the Bio.
