Biography

Jacob WRATTEN was born in 1730 to Nicholas and Mary Wretten, and christened on 30 March 1730 in West Hythe, Kent, England. ^[1]

Jacob Wratten (or Ratten) married Susanna Taylor on 5 Mar 1755.^[2]

Jacob and Susan Wratten are identified as the parents of the following children from their christening records: John (1756), Jacob (1758),^[3] Nicholas (1761), George (1769) and John (1771). [Note it is assumed the first John died young, and therefore a later son was also named John.]

Jacob may have died in Jan 1787 according to a plausible burial record on 1 Feb 1787.^[4] (A plausible burial record for his wife in 1790 indicates she was widow.)
