    • That this Jane was married to a John Adams (after John Holdich died) from the Court of Chancery case regarding her uncle William Wotton's will (C 6/324/47). This also describes him as 'Clarke' making it clear it was the Vicar and not the Yeoman with the name that she was married to, as does the PR entry.

      Details from PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 4 Jan 2022)
      "Mr John Adams Vicar of Blackauton & Mrs Jane Holditch were married the sixth day of June"
