Need burial record for Philadelphia - not found yet.
Work out who Philadelphia was and when they were married. Note: First child, Elizabeth was baptised on 12 March 1618/19 at St Bride's Church Fleet Street, London, England (and it was also recorded at Southill, Bedfordshire). It is possible she was Philadelphia Conquest, from Southill. This is being researched.[2]
