Research notes

Did Mary marry Richard Williams?

This conjecture came from DNA matches^[2].

However on further digging, it seems the Mary married to Richard Williams baptizing a Dianysia Williams in Peter Tavy is more likely to be Mary Palmer who married in Bridestow a Richard Williams of Peter Tavy rather than the Richard Williams of Tavistock who married a Mary Pike of Bradstone.

Pity, it seemed so fitting that a familiy with Procretia as a name, might also have a Dianysia,Henderson-2297

If so, is Richard any relation to Mary's brother-in-law, Jonathan Williams, married to Procretia.
