Hi Donna
The parish record reads
William baseborn son of Sarah Turk als Haines.
So he was illegitimate and presumably naughty Sarah Turk was living with Mr Haines as his wife. Perhaps they married later. I THINK I noticed that the Hilperton marriages are indexed but I didn't check them. Neither did I check for siblings.
Just had another thought - there's no doubt that William was illegitimate (baseborn) but it's possible that Sarah was too, and that she was born TURK but her mother lived with a Mr HAINES, or married him after Sarah's birth, or married twice, once to a Mr Turk and then to a Mr Haines.
Life would be so boring if everything was straightforward!
Regards Jane
