John GOTHAM

1585 - Yes, date unknown

 Set As Default Person

• Name	John GOTHAM
  Relationship	with Teresa Ann GOATHAM
  Baptised	1 Jun 1585	Holy Trinity Church, Torbryan, Devon, England
  	From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 14 Nov 2014) "Johannes Gotam baptizatus [1585] Junii 1 " I am not certain John was the son of Thomas. Very few Gotham 'CMB' events in Torbryan, but these include 3 baptisms 1580-1585. It seems reasonable to suppose that these 3 children were probably siblings, and so all the offspring of a Thomas Gotham, although the father's name is only shown in one of the baptism entries.

  Married	I am showing a family here which may be more than one merged. Matthew, Petronella and John make sense as siblings, being baptised in Torbryan in 1580-1585, a parish with no other Gotham events until over a hundred years later. Given there are no further events at Torbryan, it appears that the family left that parish, and the baptisms of Thomas and Samuel in Wolborough follow on nicely. Because a Thomas and Samuel, as well as an Agnes, are then found in Ugborough it appears at least some of the family then moved there. I am guessing that Agnes who married there was the sister of Thomas and Samuel, though she could have been their mother, remarrying. I did think that Thomas the father of Samuel and Thomas was probably the son of William and Joan, baptised in Stokeinteignhead in 1568, especially as he had had a brother Samuel, but this would mean he had married at an unusually young age, and as there were two Thomases of his age in Combeinteignhead, a neighbouring parish to Stokeinteignhead, at the time of the maritime survey of 1619, it now seems more likely that one of them could have been that Thomas.
