Hello Muriel - I don't think that Thomas Page and Susannah (Middleton) were the parents of your ancestor. Thomas Page is my 4 x great grandfather. I wish I could discover more about his origins.He was born around 1744 (not as in your posting). He died in Dartford in 1821, the age at death being given as 77. His wife, Susannah, died later the same year.Susannah was born in 1747 (daughter of Thomas and Susannah Middleton)Thomas Page and Susanna were married in Darenth, Kent 1767 (both signing the register with their mark, so illiterate)They had the following children:Thomas 1769 (Darenth)Richard 1771 (Darenth)William 1773 (Charlwood, Surrey) - died in early childhoodJohn 1775 (Charlwood, Surrey) - died in early childhoodJames 1777 (Wilmington) NOTE that James died (Wilmington) aged fourCharles Robert 1784 (Wilmingon)Henry - born circa 1785, date and place N/K I have seen all the above records on the Cityark site (excellent source of images of Parish Registers for the Medway region). The Charlwood records I have only seen in transcript form.The family relationships were confirmed in details of Court of Chancery proceedings.So, unless for some reason Thomas and Susanna were living in Clerkenwell in 1786, when your James was boren, it seems unlikely (though not impossible) that your ancestor's parents were Thomas and Susannah.Have you seen the parish register for St John's Clerkenwell? If so, did it give the names of both parents?Those Public Members Trees for the Page family contain many errors and unchecked suppositions!With best wishes from CornwallIan
