DO YOU LIKE A PUZZLE? I have always believed my ancestor Henry Hitchcock to have married Deborah Sanders, both from the village of Colaton Raleigh Devon and had a daughter Martha1790 and two sons George1793 and John1799.
However since pouring over the Church records for East Budleigh (online @ DFHS) it would seem that George was the son of Henry & Sarah ! no sign of a George born to Henry & Deborah! It could be that Deborah was Sarah and Visa versa,a bad transcription perhaps or it could be that dozens of family trees' particularly on Ancestry are in fact all wrong! If so can anyone help me prove where George Hitchcock1793 who married Martha Pidgeon came from and whether his mother was Deborah or sarah?
Many thanks.
