jonwicken, firstly just wanted to say how pleased I was that you accepted that the William & Mary you were following were not the same couple having unregistered children during the 1840/50's. It really makes a change that posters admit going wrong (and if were all honest most of us have at some point). Are you wanting to still gather info on this family, ie baptism dates etc.

Thank you. Yes when people don't acknowledge an error they have made, it is very frustrating indeed!
I always double check anything I read or see myself and have had to inform many people over the years they have got something wrong, and as you say often people don't like or accept it!
My head is in a spin with all these small DNA matches to Dinham and Denham families in my late father's DNA and the DNA of a distant cousin of his.
I am hoping that DNA might help me crack the origin of my my ancestor Robert Denham (c1773/4-1837) who married Mary Lepine in London in 1803. Incidentally, his details are wrong in dozens of family trees on ancestry as being born in 1779 (that Robert is actually too young and actually died as a baby) and also dying in 1838 (that is a different Robert Denham who married Mary Adams and was born in Norwich in 1771). So I see the errors and often it is impossible to correct them when across multiple trees and they become alternative facts!
I think what I really need the most now is to see the father's name on the 1872 marriage of Eliza Denham to Thomas Ellis to confirm she is William's daughter.
Then I need to see the father's name on the marriage of widow Mary Denham to John Yendall in 1868 to see if it helps me find her first marriage to William Dinham.
Thanks again for all the help.
