Notes

---

Birth Notes:

Deduced from death date

Death Notes:

First name illegible in Parish records but the date is plausible

Burial Notes:

First name illegible in Parish record

General:

CONJECTURE - Richard's burial in BL is only conjecture. The BL Parish record has an illegible christian name. However, the age (80 years) and date fit and mean he had moved to BL with his third wife, Rebecca Clarke, who is also buried there.

He is shown as a widower on his marriage certificate to Rebecca Clarke.
