    Notes 
    • I'm assuming "Peter Reed junr" who witnessed Patty's wedding was a brother.
      Peter Reed Junr. was a witness at most marriages in the 1760s - I think he must have been the Parish Clerk.

      Probably the Peter Reed of Walkhampton with Freeholder rights in 1799 (see the FODA website)

      Newleycome Farm was tenanted by a Peter Reed, 1795 - 1806, I guess this Peter; from 1806 - 24 the tenant was Thomas - presumably his son, additionally a Peter was tenant from 1820-23 - this Peter's son or did Thomas have a son Peter?
