The information was transcribed by JILL MARSHALL from photocopies of original parish records in the possession of Randy Whitten. While I have endeavored to be as correct as humanly possible, there could be some typographical errors.

NOTE: Maiden names were NOT in the church records and were added by Jill Marshall where known from marriage records, or oral family tradition.
