If this is satisfactory, Lucinda Hewson’s bible days that her children with James Wallis were George b. 24 Aug 1784, James b. 11 Oct 1785, Margaret b. 7 Jul 1787, Anne b. 1789, and William b. 11 Feb 1793. It also says she was born in 1766, not 1750 as shown on so many trees, at Ennismore. My mother-in-law, descendant of Anne Wallis and Alexander Tayler, has the bible pages.

Per Lucy’s bible, children are:
George 24Aug1784-15Apr1818
James 11Oct1785-12Jul1858
Margaret 7Jul1787-8Sep1877
Anne 1789-29Mar1870
William 11Feb1793-Mar1801
John 1794-still alive when she passed, based on comments in bible he got into trouble involving dishonesty of some type, we think he may have been transported to Australia as punishment (ultimate irony, if so). Found a record that seems to match but have not been able to confirm with 100% certainty.

If you are unaware, husband James, d. 13May1800 and Lucy d. 14Mar1825, both are buried in the family tomb in the churchyard of St. Finbarr’s Cathedral, in Cork. Several family are there - I don’t know who else, and the church records for this old part are not available online.

There is a note that George tore out and took bible pages pertaining to his family after Lucy died. If you know descendants, perhaps they still have them. There would have been general family info recorded by Lucy, or others on her behalf after she learned to write (taught by a son), on the reverse.

James Wallis had a first wife, Anne Mann b. 1794 d. 1735. They married in 1820. Mary Ann Breach was second wife, and they had one child Frederick James Henry Turner Barnwell Wallis b. 12 Jun 1838 York Place, Clifton, Gloucestershire and died 12 Apr 1841. Alexander Tayler and Anne Wallis, sister to James, are my husband's 3rd great grandparents through their son Alexander. The bible of Lucy Hewson, mother of Anne and James Wallis and their siblings, went down the family line through Anne, and I have a copy.

Can I get that info too? Alexander Tayler and Anne Wallis are my husband's third great grandparents through their son Alexander. I have photos of the hand written front pages of Lucinda Hewson's bible, and interestingly, not all the info matches with what is commonly found out there about the family.
