    "Buried at Meetin" a confusing comment as it seems to indicate he may have been a non-conformist possibly a Quaker (meeting house). Yet his parents were not and he was married in the Church of England.

    Notes:

    Youngest Daughter

    Birth:
    Was "21 years and upwards" in 1773 when marriage bond was taken

    Not yet 21 years old and "youngest daughter" in her father's will written 18 June 1757

    Age listed as 56 in her 1809 marriage to William TURNER

    Christened:
    Unable to find a will for Ann or her siblings, it's possible they were baptised in non-conformist chapels in the area as there is some indication that the family flirted with the non-conformist movement. The records for those chapels have not survived.

    Hampshire Record Office copy of the baptism of Ann Knowlton gave the following, either it is the wrong Ann or the father's name was recorded incorrectly. At this point it can't be used given this problem.
