Research Notes

For example, he appears to have been born and baptised in Pendeen, Cornwall and in Crailing, Roxburghshire, Scotland on identical dates. This may reflect his changes of religious affiliation over the years, documented in the FindaGrave records.

His children were recorded as born and baptised in numerous places, too.
