Hi
I'm looking for any details on a John Benfield b c 1740 Charlbury who married Martha unknown. They had the following children:
May 1761, Sarah 1763, John 1766, William 1774, Elizabeth 1776, John 1778, Ann & Martha 1785
William 1774 is my direct ancestor: chr 24 Jul 1774 Charlbury, d 1843 Burnham Bucks, mar Hannah Spicer 1809 Hooknorton, shoe maker according to 1841 census.
Looking at the gap between 1766-1774 I'm not sure whether in fact there was another marriage.
Any information on John appreciated,
Kind Regards
Steph
