    Notes 
    • Married when her mother wrote her will, but her marriage PR record points to her being the son of Martha and her second husband. This makes sense as Thomas's mother was called Catherine, so she was probably named after her grandmother.

    • There was a marriage of a Thomas Beacon to Martha Croft on 19 Nov 1786 at Bobbing (by banns) - was it this couple, Martha being a widow? 
      I'm now fairly sure it was. Martha's will shows her brother was a Roper, and a Martha Roper of Bredgar married William Craft (by licence) on 24 Oct 1773 of a William Craft to Martha Roper of Bredgar at Tunstall.
      Both Thomas and Martha were buried at Bobbing so they clearly had a link with that village.
