There are at least 2 more likely baptism for her: 1576 Bekesbourne or 1580 Adisham ... why 1573 Goudhurst? Just deosn't make sense
posted by Jeremy Stroud
Mother Margaret would be age 41-51 when Sturges children are baptised - I propose that she is not Margaret Austen bapt 1573 Goudhurst, but a Margaret Austen bapt later say about 1580-5 and nearer to South-East Kent (Not North-West). Also a Margaret Austen wife of John is buried Goudhurst on 2 Apr 1608; furthermore John Sturgis married in Tilmanstone which is miles away from Goudhurst. It just doesn't add up: too many anomalies.
posted by Jeremy Stroud
Agreed. However, the two pages that appear to be for this same John Austen say, between them, that Margaret was still having children with John Austin from 1608-11 when a Margaret was also having children with John Sturges, and was, according to you, dead.

posted by Debra (Downs) Allison
It appears that son Edward Sturges was born after his mother married John Austen, but before she then married John Sturgis. I'm sure something is incorrect.
Austin-3140 and Austen-716 appear to represent the same person because: Only difference is spelling of last name.
Austin-4913 and Austen-716 appear to represent the same person because: Only conflict is spelling of name.
Austin-4913 and Austen-716 do not represent the same person because: There are too many confusing relationships.
Austin-4913 and Austen-716 appear to represent the same person because: Only difference is name spelling. I'll be happy to go with Austen and will show an alternate spelling of "Austin".
