Thank you, Deborah. It would certainly make sense as I have Richard's death as 1729 but if that is the case, Mary wasted no time, did she??!!
As mentioned in an earlier post, would be more interested in confirmation of Richard's birth. If you could help with that, I would be very grateful.
Am on holiday for a week from today so will not be able to respond to a reply for a while but will check on my return.
Many thanks.

Thanks to all for replies.

Another line of research indicated to me that Richard was indeed married twice -- the first time to Janeta White in 1704. And if he WAS born in c1680, would make him 24 and 31 respectively which makes more sense.
Anyone able to verify birth as c1680??

I am trying to get some information on the history of Richard and Joseph SILL who where founder members (along with James Hendrie) of the Wigton School of Clockmaking in Cumberland in the early 1700s.
Richard was born in the late 17th century -- possibly 1680 and died in 1729
Joseph was born 1725, married Mary Barnes Bromfield in 1751/2 and died in 1803
Would also be interested to know where they worked as I am researching the history of clockmaking in Wigton.

hello Tracie -- have sent a message to you via Ancestry. Hope you receive it and can open your tree to me.

My connection is actually via Letitia, one of george's sisters, who married a 2xgreat uncle

Hello Tracie. Thanks for your reply. Would be most interested to see your tree on Ancestry. Is a private or a public tree - what is your username?

Many thanks for your swift response, Sandra. I am indeed on Ancestry but very few of my Member Connections feature George on their trees so I am pleased that you have confirmed that he does exist! Am grateful also for the links which I will certainly follow up.
Regards
Malcolm
