WATTS, John - Lookup Request
« on: Friday 29 July 11 14:33 BST (UK) »
Hi there,

I am looking for information on John WATTS, b.1760 or there abouts. He married a Jane (?). That is the only information I have for them.

My 4xGreat grandmother was their daughter, Rebecca Norma Watts b. Oct 1785 in Westbury, England (married James Randall, b. 1775 in Westbury, England) and had 11 children, 7 girls and 4 boys.

Any help in tracing these people would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in Advance,
Leigh

They had a Son too;
... (Male) WATTS, 06 November 1791, Westbury, Wiltshire to JOHN/JANE

Seeing your Family seems to live to a good age this may be Jane although I cannot find her on 1841 Census;
BURIAL;
Jane WATTS, 06 January 1847, Westbury, Wiltshire, Age 99, Birth c 1748 :)
Residence Hawkeridge.
(F/S Pilot)

The John Watts 1833 Burial I posted earlier has Residence Hawkridge also, which I missed before.

Hi Leigh,

I think the Jane you are looking for might be Jane Bayly who married a Watts in 1760 in Westbury Wilts
