Research Notes

Spouse needs sourced and added including the Timandra category

Trees all claim his wife was Tabitha Leader - have only found a marriage for a Quantick - William who came on the ship with them is two. There is a William Jordan with Mother's Maiden Name as Leader. She is obviously the mother of those born after 1831yet twins John and George (both 11 on ship) are baptised in Aug 1831 with Tabitha as mother and there is a 15 yr old Mary Ann on ship under Jordan - who does she belong with? Tabitha was obvsly married before, was George and is Mary Ann a Jordan or actually Quantick? At present I am placing all children as George's children but some trees are claiming she (and an older Louisa that stayed in UK) are actually Quantick.
