Title: Christopher Simons abt 1750-1826
Post by: arny on Friday 05 April 24 15:49 BST (UK)
He married Sarah Brommel/Bromley 19 Oct 1773 at Gt Holland where he farmed. They had two children Mary Ann 1776-1810 & William 1778-1826. On 29 Sep 1778 at Gt Holland he was a witnesss at the marriage of Reuben Simons & Susannah Peck. I can find no record of his baptism in Essex. Simons were farmers in Elmstead, Frating & Brightlinsea, but there is no trace of Christopher or Reuben in Essex. Any ideas?

I suppose you have his will, of 1826? Does it add anything?

Yes I have the will but it doesn't help with his origins
