Devon Lookup Requests / Re: David Emmett
« on: Thursday 18 February 21 16:31 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you Rosie99.  I will look again.  I am amazed how often when I look at these sites a second or third time I get a different result each time.
I still feel that 44 in 1607 was a dangerous age to have a child hence my doubt.

Devon Lookup Requests / David Emmett

Can anyone please help or any ideas.
I have reached Nicholas Emmett b.1607 Dean Prior? Devon: father purported to be David Emmett b.1560 wife Elenor b.1563.  Ancestry, Find my Past, Family Search all roughly agree.
Nothing beyond David, however, and I am reluctant to believe that Elenor had a child when she was 44. Of course it could be the last of many, poor woman.

Thank you DOB7.  I had satisfactorily established Richard b.1647, m. 1673, d. 1690, married to Mary and was led astray by chasing Nicholas as his father.  Richard and his son Roger are now firm, as firm as they can be.
So I am back to trying to establish a father for Richard.  Thank you for your informed assistance

Actually, I have been researching further and I now am not satisfied about Richard Emmett.  Looking at the photos of the Parish Register 1660 it shows a marriage between Richard Emmett and Marie Rowe. If that this is the same Richard born 1647 that makes him just 13 when he got married. 
Roger Emmett born 1683 in Harberton is now my earliest safe record.

Thank you for the explanation.  Obvious when someone explains.
Now I feel less optimistic about getting beond Richard.

Hi DOB7
Thank you for your help.  Second wife Elizabeth was a surprise.  Where did you find that?
What does base daughter - Emmett mean?
I've not been happy with the Plymouth connection but you could fit the dates in.
Nicholas Emmott is possibly related.  There were quite a few Emmetts living there then.
Regards

Hi Rosie99
Siblings Nicholas and Ann but they don't supply father or mother details. As I say, brick wall, but glad to have your confirmation about Richard.

I seem to have hit the proverbial brick wall.  I am pretty confident of my research and confirmation up to - Richard Emmett b. 3 May 1647 in Harberton, m. 17 May 1673 to Mary Rowe, d. 15 March 1690.
The best I have for father is Nicholas m. Agnes Hoare 31 March 1643.
I have struggled with usual sources. Does anyone have any ideas or is this it.

Hi Gadget
Thank you for that information. 3 May birth is close enough to 30 May baptism.
Whether Agnes Hoare is mother is another matter although Family Search suggested it was. 
Of course, the marriage date is now open to question as well.  Your second message offers another alternative.
Lovely area to live in.  I haven't visited for years before I located my families home area.
Bye
