Are there two Robert Goodalls?
« on: Saturday 18 September 21 00:15 BST (UK) »
I have Robert Goodall baptised In Shirley Derbyshire in1731 seems a likely candidate for a marriage at Shirley in 1754 or 1755 to Mary Pountin.(this from Derbyshire records,  I think this particular record is a transcript since there are anomalies)
Robert and Mary Goodall have three children baptised in Longford Derbyshire but from Hollington. Derbyshire Esther 1768, Hannah 1772, Robert 1774.
Robert and Mary Goodall were buried in Shirley 1817, but both were from Longford,
The problem I am having is the gap from the marriage to the birth of Esther is rather large.
There are  baptisms for John 1755,Shirley and Alice Mickleover The place Mary was from at her marriage,
Are these the same Robert and Mary and there is an unknown reason for the gap did Mary Pointin die and Robert married another Mary?

They could have started out married life in her village/town and later moved to Longford/Hollington.

There is also a Mary baptized 24 April 1762 in Littleover daughter of Robert and Mary

Thank you for your interest. Sorry I have taken so long to reply, internet problems.
I have considered that children may have been born elsewhere but Mary's birthplace is unknown, I can't find a baptism for her in Derbyshire although there are Pountains baptised within a reasonable distance from both Shirley and Longford,
I have found children of Robert and Mary baptised in other places but the baptism dates seem to negate them being my Robert and Mary's children except John in 1755 Shirley,
