Does anyone actually know of any. "the seventh son of a seventh son" on Wikitree

Question

To qualify as "the seventh son of a seventh son" one must be the seventh male child born in an unbroken line with no female siblings born between, and to a father who himself is the seventh male child born in an unbroken line with no female siblings born between.

it would be just as interesting if anyone knows of a  "seventh daughter of a seventh daughter"

Comments

That's a very restrictive definition. I'm sure that traditionally it was just the seventh son of a seventh son regardless of any female siblings.

I'd always heard it as 7th child of a 7th child, but then I was always Scottish influenced because in Scotland, the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter was said to have the gift of "The Sight" (prophetic vision). 
Don't forget, too, the supposed mystic properties tied to those born with a caul.  Add that to the 7th of a 7th thing, and it would be interesting to see how much of it might run in some family lines.

My research I’m interested in is a 7th son of a 7th son no females in between or a 7th daughter of a 7th daughter no males in between, I’m sure they would be a lot of 7th child of a 7th child, yes on caul that probably would be in medical records. Not sure till I find my 7th of a 7th daughter or son I could find that medical record.

That would turn into quite the extensive TREE !

Yes I would like to work on this line.

Answer 2

Watch for men called 'Septimus'.  Not always a seventh son, but can be.

Ok Great I see 1152 Matches for Septimus on Wikitree. Thanks

It gives several alleged historical examples.

Of the ones that really seem to meet the criteria, James Murrell does not seem to have a WikiTree profile, but does have a Wikipedia entry:

Abram George does not seem to have either.

Archillie Noe Baillargeon has a WikiTree profile:
