Nel, I don't care what anyone says, that magnificent brain of yours just means that you really are smarter than the average bear.......... Kudos Kid............. Dean Taylor ************* Ah-right, then! I did a little more searching, too. And it does seem as if there wasn't really an age requirement. So.....on our file we have.... "Ann HATCHER was listed as a witness TO HER DAUGHTER "Ann HATCHER was listed as a witness TO HER SON Thomas's did not identify their relationship so I'm saying.....how is it known that Ann Hatcher was THE MOTHER? Here is the problem....... InThen in 1773, Ann, the dau of John/Sarah Ingledue, witnessed the wedding of her uncle, Thomas. She would have been about 10 and possibly even a few years older. And in 1779 Wm Jr md Mary McGrew. The timeline works............whatcha' think?
