Additonal Information

This is pre 1820 information mainly taken from actual images of parish registers held at the London Metropolitan Archives, non conformist registers at the National Archives at Kew (RG4), online parish registers at http://cityark.medway.gov.uk/ or from original images at http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/. I have also included some information from original images of Scottish old parish registers and Wiltshire parish records which I have personally researched. With references to the IGI I have been careful to state whether the information is “extracted” (taken from parish registers) or “submitted” (submitted by an LDS member, which may or may not be from original sources and should be thoroughly checked). Where reference is made to the London Gazette, the full version can be downloaded from http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/.  Sue Mackay

The mother of Stephen's children was Amelia, not Cordelia, the name of his wife in The Settler Handbook. Cordelia was probably a misreading of Amelia in the returns.
