Individual Notes
• said to be a “natural” child, i.e. born out of wedlock.1477, p 4; Note 2
• Note: The questions raised by the above two listings [Marguerite and Marguerite] are obvious. Were there two Isaac Roberts? If there was only one did he have a legitimate child by his wife in 1775 and an out of wedlock child in 1777 whose baptismal name was the same? As far as the records are concerned, there are questions but no answers.1477, p 4
• Note: Her name given at baptism as “Marguerite Roberts”; surmise this to mean that this child is the child of father and mother, Isaac Roberts and Mary Sproat, unmarried, responsible for the infant’s care.1482, p 4,1687, email
