    • From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 13 Jul 2021)
      "25 Rebecca the Daughter of Joseph Hammett ba[ptized - end of word hidden in centre fold of register] the 25 of March" - under heading (on previous page) 'Chrisning Anno Domini 1708'
      All the surrounding entries are in chronological order; this entry is the last under the heading for 1708, suggesting it was in 1709. Although strictly the year at this time began on 25 March New Year celebrations were on 1st January, so it is easy to see how someone could enter the 25 March in the wrong year.

    • From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 10 Jul 2021)
      "Joseph Hammet of Widdicomb and Thomazin Alford of soarton, were marryed _ Novem. 3d"

      No records of baptisms in Widecomb between Feb 1702/03 and Nov 1704 survive; it seems likely that Joseph and Thomazin would have had a child at this time, given the smaller gaps between their other children than between Joseph and Samuel.
      The Thomazin who was buried in 1726 may well have been their daughter.
