Biography

1744: John was probably born in Ickenham to John Woodman, and baptised on 11 Apr 1744 in Ickenham.

1774: John is listed as the father of Martha Woodman, born in 1774 to John and Fanny Sturgess and baptised in Ickenham on 5-Mar-1774 ^[1]. Four months later John and Fanny were married in Ickenham on 26 Jul 1774. A Marriage Bond (see father's details) states that Fanny is a minor of 18 years or upwards, (so likely born ~1756) and her father is John Sturgess of Uxbridge ^[2][3]. This would suggest that Martha was conceived out of marriage when Fanny was still a minor - hence the circumstances around the marriages.

1809: John is likely to have passed away in 1809 and buried in Ickenham on 22 Dec 1809.
