Which John Stokes?
« on: Monday 13 March 17 19:55 GMT (UK) »
Im having trouble differentiating two John Stokes. One born 1727 another in 1743 both born in Malpas, Cheshire both to John and Ann Stokes.
John and Ann's son John married Sarah Morris in 1761 (Proved by John SNR's will in 1772). So John 1727 would have been 34 and John 1743 18. Both possible!

I can only find one marriage between a John and Ann in 1722.
They appear to have had Elizabeth 1723, John 1726-1726, James 1728, Ann 1731 and Margaret 1735.
John 1743 seems like the odd one, but i cant actually prove it.
I also cant find a death of John 1727 to say that 1743 John is of the same family.

Can anyone help?
