  Born	6 Oct 1656
  Baptised	St. Michael the Archangel’s Church, Chagford, Devon, England
  	"Thomas Sonn of John Ellesdon Gen: born the 6th of October & baptizd" The lack of a baptism date could imply it was on the day of birth. However, while some entries have the date of both the birth and baptism, many end simply 'and baptized' after the date of birth. It seems to me unlikely this many were baptised the same day they were born, more likely that the date was omitted (perhaps not noted at the time and then forgotten).

  Father	Mr John ELLESDON,   bur. 21 Apr 1668, St. Michael the Archangel’s Church, Lyme Regis, Dorset, England
  Mother	Mrs Sarah,   bur. 7 Jan 1677/78, St. Michael the Archangel’s Church, Lyme Regis, Dorset, England
  Married	John's wife No other Ellesdon events found in Lyme Regis in the second half of the C17th than for John and his family and his brother William and his family. Their father Anthony had mentioned no wife in his will so appears to have died a widower. With evidence that William's wife was buried in Charmouth (from a monument there) it would seem that widow Mistress Sarah Ellesdon was John's widow. Children There is a large gap in the baptisms (or births) in Lyme Regis register to 1653, and a small gap from 1660 to 1665. It is possible that John had one or more children before Grace, and probable that he and Sarah had 2 or 3 children between John (1658) and Mary (1666).
