Biography

Research Notes

The first mention of a parish by the name Hanmer, in any existing record, is a church in the reign of King Henry III, who obtained in border war some possession, for he granted the advowson and rectory, by an undated deed, to the monks of Haughmond, near Shrewsbury. [1]

Based on Spouses and Children, I think it is pretty clear they refer to the same person. What is NOT clear is

Which name is correct?

Which dates are correct.

I welcome your additional research, but want to point out that we can not complete the merge of granddaughter Agnes - Demacclesfield-2 and Macclesfield-8 - until the merges of her parents and grandparents are completed (or she is disconnected from them).

Thanks

Macclesfield-7 and Hanmer-59 are not ready to be merged because: I still have questions to research before going forward with this merge. Thanks.

Macclesfield-7 and Hanmer-59 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicates in spite of differences in name and date.
