William Hitchman and Elizabeth

[Jane190]

Hi,

I have a marriage between William Hitchman and Elizabeth Tilling in Wantage 1783. I have them as the parents of Mary Hitchman born 1796 and possible brother Joseph born 1792 Wantage. Is this the right marriage for the couple ? I can not find any other children so is there another possible marriage in the area between William Hitchman and an Elizabeth?

On Anc to William/Elizabeth
JOSEPH !792/bapt 1793
MARY 1796
ANN 1798

Cant see any others that confirm 1783 Marriage.

Thank you Guys! I’ve also made a post about Mary Hitchman some time ago and I’m quite sure to habe the right baptism of Mary 1796 Wantage daughter of William and Elizabeth. https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=855149.9


Robert b. 1807 could also be a brother or maybe there were two couples named William and Elizabeth in Wantage at the time ?
