Devon / Woodgate family of Seaton & Beer. Robert, Elizabeth, Daniel, John, Alice 1750's+

« on: Wednesday 19 April 17 22:17 BST (UK) »

My research has led me to queries regarding a Robert WOODGATE (1797-1886) in Seaton & Beer. married 13 Oct 1817 to Elizabeth WOODGATE (1797-1847)
I expect these two were cousins but I cannot trace her father John WOODGATE and/or her mother Alice LEE to find out where they were related.
I think I have found that Alice was previously married to a mariner (James Marchant LEE???) who was drowned and John adopted her 2 daughters (Elizabeth & Sarah).
I also have a Daniel WOODGATE, also a mariner who was somehow also related but to which side?

?? (no known facts at all for him)
Any assistance gratefully received.
