Research Notes

Viewed baptism record on Ancestry, says he is a son of John and Mary, but no age listed. Was he an older child at that point, as a normal marriage age would have been about 20 and he married Elizabeth in 1747. AND are these the correct people?

I believe his baptism is correct and that he was at least 4 or 5 years old when baptized (not unusual). Cunningham-10584 19:32, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

1734 SEPT 19; Nathaniel GANDER son of John & Mary from Sherborne OPC
