(1) No one except Indians lived in Somerset in the 1650s.? (2) The Anglican Stepney Parish was created only in the 1690s,?following the Protestant Revolution, when the Anglican Church became the official religion in the Province.? (3) Before that time, our principal source of Somerset vital statistics is in the county Land Records Volume IKL, which includes transcribed entries from early days.? IKL includes five children of John and Frances Renshaw in the 1670s and 1680s, but no marriage is found, and no maiden name for her.

I thought the maiden name of the Frances, married to John Rencher I, was unknown and that Frances Clark was married to John Rencher II. I have a notation that says John Rencher I and Frances were married in Stepney Parish in 1654 and their son John was born in 1655. If this is incorrect I would love to know. I think some of my early Rencher information is a bit mixed up with lots of old outdated sources. Maybe I have asked this before and it has been adequately answered. If so, I apologize.
