    • From BT entry (image on FamilySearch, viewed 18 Jun 2018)
      (Slapton Parish Registers only survive from 1634, so the entry can't be checked there)
      In Boyd's index, he probably used the BTs, unless earlier PRs survived at the time he created his index (1925-1955).
      "[August] 18. Richard Proute, & Johan Board; were marryed." - under heading 'Weddinges - 1617'

      ** At present I am just  guessing that Thomas and Richard were the sons of Richard and Johan **.
      It seems almost certain that there must have been more children, with the known ones being born some 17 years after their marriage, if, that is, I have the right marriage. Of course it is possible that the same Richard was widowed and remarried to another Joan, or that there was another Richard in the Parish, also married to Joan.

      BTs survive for Slapton for the years 1617, 1620, 1623, 1632, 1634 (between 1617 and 1635) so it may be possible to check for more children of Richard and Johan baptised in these years, but from BTs I've seen for other parishes even those that survive have parts of pages missing so not everything is readable.
