Elizabeth Rowland m George Goodson 9 Oct 1761, Grantham

[kiwicatz]

But which George? There are so many George Goodsons, but I can't find a marriage where their ages would be right. Elizabeth was born 1716, and I can't find a George born closer to that than 1740, this man is born in Grantham to parents George and Elizabeth, which could be right, if only I could find husband George's dob!
Any ideas out there, please?

Lincs Archives have these GOODSON wills

The first four digits are the year.  The fifth digit ought to be a slash.

The George born 1720 could be the right one, how close is Woolsthorpe is near Grantham, but there are two?

They are Wills.

The dates will indicate the date of death rather than birth.
