Hi all,
looking for any information about mary Hutt from Mountnessing.
In 1689 she had a male bastard child, by John Winley (windley) from Roxwell.
What was the name of the child ? When and where (íf at all) was he christened ?
When and where was Mary born ? And did she marry at all later ?
John was married to Elizabeth Elson in Octobre 1688 in Writtle.
So Mary was already 4 months pregnant with John's child ! Oh oh
Any help grately appreciated !

That’s interesting as Elisabeth and John are my 8x grandparents 🤣
Never saw the illegitimate child!
John and Elisabeth’s child was baptised 12/4/1689. So both would’ve been pregnant at the same time if it’s the same John!
