so this is how I have worked it out...
Silas married Mary Male in 1786, her death has not been found. 1793 Emanuel Talbot was born.
But Jessie Satherley named Silas as the father of her son Edmond Satherley born 1790.Edmond did not get his fathers name, maybe because Silas was married to someone else at the time?
In January 1795 Jessie married William Gerrard, 1796 William Gerrard (jnr) was born.
Also I have Jessie born 1770?
I am ashamed to say I do not know the history of it, but the French Revolution was happening at the time, would that have impacted on them??
