    Notes 
    • (Research):A Thomas Sellen married an Ann Grigsby in Hucking in 1789 (19 May). This is the only Ann I know of of a suitable age with a link to Hucking, but her marriage in 1783 (which records her with her distinctive name of Ann Phillis) suggests the 1789 marriage was not her. I think it was probably her sister Frances, with the Christian name mis-recorded (in BTs or transcript).

      No children of this marriage baptised in Thurnham Parish Church (from KFHS transcribed data); none found in index on FMP, 20 Jul 2019 - includes most but not all churches in the area. But maybe they didn't live in the area.
