Hello corb-170,

I see that they married in Axbridge in 1794.

Freereg has a couple of possible baptisms for William Escott.

Old Cleeve, St Andrew. 17/08/1765 baptised William, son of Thomas and Mary Escott.

Watchet, St Decumans.15/10/1761, William, son of Henry and Mary Escott.

Where was Mary Escot baptised in 1805?

In view of the fact they married in 1794, it is likely there would be more children for this couple, born c1795 onwards. The question is where?

i don't know if mary was born in 1805, or perhaps later, think the record i got said it was in axbridge.  i don't know anything more about william except a record said that he was born in old cleeve in 1765.(from family records, i guess)
