Marriage notice between 10 and 24 Dec 1758 Hartland, Devon, England 5) Married 30 Dec 1758 Hartland, Devon, England 6) (31 years married) to: Sarah Heard 1) Died Jul 1790 Hartland, Devon, England 7) Buried 25 Jul 1790 Hartland, Devon, England 7) Notes: There are two possible birth records for Sarah Heard (one born in 1723, the other 1724). There is circumstantial evidence to support the 1724 baptism - Nicholas is the father and Nicholas is also a witness at Sarah's marriage. Nonetheless, given that baptism would make her circa 5 years older than her partner Charles, and that it would result in her being 34 at marriage, further evidence is required. Children: 2. Thomas BondBorn 1763 Hartland, Devon, England |
