      "Vyncent Gotham to Thomasin Kinge the vith of Julye" - '1584' in the margin.

      Baptisms in the PRs jump from June 1592 to March 1593/4, a gap of about 21 months when the number of baptisms per year was normally in double figures. One or two of the Richard who was described as a son of Vyncent at his burial, as well as William and Jane who I suspect were offspring of Vyncent and Thomasin could have been baptised in this gap, or before the first known baptism of a child (Elizabeth in 1588) or have been missed in the PRs at another time.
