Thanks Deb for the information - he certainly would be the right age to be the son of Samuel/Mary. Also for giving me details of Elizabeth - she also could belong to the family. I have been going around in circles trying to find out info on Samuel and Mary, so thanks once again.
Regards,
Rosalind.

Hi Splinter
We appear to be looking at the same family I think and probably with the same indecision about whether they are correct or not. ;)
In particular I am interested in the person you have as Ann Adams Heath baptised 30 Sep 1788. I have a copy of an email from someone doing a lookup on this person back in 2002 and this says the parents were Henry and Mary and not Samuel and Mary. Have I been on a wild goose chase ever since? I have noticed Samuel Heath before but disregarded him on the basis of this lookup.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this one.

Hello Cath,
I received your post for which I thank you. I have not been researching the family for awhile. You have aroused my curiosity now so will get stuck into it when I get back from holidays at the end of the month. I will post you any info I have on the family then. Hope we will be able to work out the family - there certainly is a lot of Heaths and many with the same names. ??? Rosalind
