Hello to all, I need some help to determine if my process of trying to locate ancestors is a valid one. I realize more checking would be needed but am I on the right track? All names are Wootton Bassett,Wiltshire. HEALE John HEALE married Ann Edmunds October12 1778 witnessed by Richard Jeffries. They had seven children named Mary, George, Alicia, Jasper, Sarah,John, Thomas. I started looking for the father of John HEALE and came across a marriage bertween George HEALE and Mary JEFFRIES on January 28,1757. Their children were Mary (died), George (died),John (born 1759), Ann,William, Mary,Thomas and Joanna. I then started looking for the father of George HEALE but the only marriage I came across in a possible time frame was between John HEALE and Elizabeth SKEATES. They had children Mary, George (born 1720),John and William. But this would have made George HEALE 37 at the time of his marriage to Mary JEFFRIES. I'm assuming (a) this isn't George's father; (b) George's father (John) may have been married twice; (c) George's father John came from elsewhere or (d) George's father John married late in life. I'd appreciate any help on this so I know what direction I should be heading in. Best Joan in Freeport,N.Y. PS: Will be happy to check on Baptisms (1594-1837) or Burials (1584- 1837) in WOOTTON BASSETT for anyone needing such information. SUBJECT HEADING should read WOOTTON BASSET RECORDS
