![]() Son of William Greenwaye and Eleanor Pearce. Died between 1681 and 1687 Kilkhampton, Cornwall, England Notes: William is described as William Greenway Junior in a 1644 baptism record for his daughter Grace. William is buried in either 1681 or 1687 - there is nothing to distinguish between either record. There is a 1586 baptism record for a William Greenway, son of Jeremy Greenway. That seems unlikely to be this Wiliam, as it would entail him first marrying at the age of 51 (or older). Also, this William is described as William Junior.

The 1638 baptism would seem likelier, as it avoids making Elizabeth 7 years older than her partner, Nathaniel. The 1638 baptism also aligns with her grave in Kilkhampton churchyard, where her age was given as 1 year less than Nathaniel's. 2. ![]() Born 1640 Kilkhampton, Cornwall, England 3. ![]() Born 1643 Kilkhampton, Cornwall, England 4. ![]() Born 1644 Kilkhampton, Cornwall, England 5. ![]() Born 1648 Kilkhampton, Cornwall, England 6. ![]() Born 1651 Kilkhampton, Cornwall, England |
