Hi Kath,
Regarding your comment quoted above, although the name Millicent/Milly was not, as you state, unusually uncommon in in Takeley, I can't remember seeing more than about one in Felsted. I might be wrong stating that, either from a flawed memory or perhaps I overlooked some. Anyway, so whilst not letting the name Milly influence us too much, the fact that William & Margaret named a daughter Milly is I believe, still worth keeping in mind.
HI

I havn't disregarded this William at all.
William we know named a daughter Melly/Millic (which is i am sure definately short for Millicent)
I am just concerned that the name Philip does not show up further down this line if you know what i mean. This is why i would like to know where the Rev. Mills got his information from. (I did find out the Address of Rev. Mills wife and give it to Trevor (M.E.), if i can find it again i will write to her unless Trevor already has.)
I just think that William son of Thomas and Elizabeth Judd is also a very likely candidate to now.
And of course as you stated there is also William of William and Hannah of Felsted.
Do you know Hannah's Surname?
So there is at least 3 Williams
William bap 27/04/1740 Takeley s. of Thomas and Elizabeth Judd
William bap 21/11/1737 Takeley s. of Philip and Ann Judd
William bap 05/02/1744 Felsted s. of William and Hannah ??
there are obviously more candidates than just these 3 as when you look at Boyd's marriage index there are several Williams marrying around 1770
William Fewel M. 1770 Eliz Graigoose Gt Dunmow
William Fewel M. 1761 Sarah Hasler Gt Dunmow
William Fuell M. 1761 Eliz Green Takeley
now off on another Tangent
Philip Fuell who Marrried Ann Judd supposedly his parents are John Fewell and Elizabeth Green who married 1707 Gt Dunmow where was Philip Baptised cos he's not in the Takeley Records so is he in the Dunmow ones?
I just feel like we (more me than we) are going round in circles haha and my brain is begining to hurt.
