Peter, Are you aware of the Australian connection to a similar branch of this family? I've passed your message on to a descendant who should contact you direct. As for John, I looked all through the Colmworth batches for surnames starting with "H" and found nothing. This is strange, because the remaining children of Samuel Hite and Jane are all christened. But then again, there is no record of the marriage of Samuel & Jane. Her name comes from christenings of children. You should also be aware. There are a number of questionable user submissions and adult christenings that confuse the issue. Look at Mary Hight with mother Jane. She is said to be born 1807 and not christened until 1841. Three other supposed sisters are all christened on the same day. Lots of traps for inexperienced players. Peter in Sydney
