I am not certain if I have been in contact with you before re Jonathan but it will not hurt repeating myself! Jonathan is on my wifes lineage. He was Baptised 16 April 1749 at St. Marys, Kingsclere the Base Born son of Elizabeth JEWELL. The Bastardy Order [I have copy on File] shows the father to be Francis LAWRENCE. My researching has drawn a blank on Francis and must admit have not pursued since finding him many moons ago, so have no Baptism date. I can go back on Elizabeth's lineage. I have no idea if the two finally married. Jonathan Married Ann SMITH on the 16 April 1777 at St. Marys. Under his Grandfather John JEWELL's Will Jonathan was granted Administration on 7 June 1781 due to the death of his Aunt Sarah BRISTER, dau of John. From the Will it is apparent that John loved his Grandson very much. [Will Ref: 1781 B 26/2]. I hope this info is of some use to you - sorry I cannot help on Francis - perhaps Barbara will have better luck What part of Australia do you live - I have many cousins and correspondents that live in different parts.
