William and Lucy are among "my lot" - William being my 1st cousin 4x removed but I was wondering whose child Joseph was if he wasn't one and the same with John. It definitely looks as though the LDS patron who submitted the Birth/Christening/Death record to the IGI mixed up the two children. Yet another example of why patron submissions should always be treated with the utmost caution! -- Jenny M Benson
