Family


man Henry Twowatters‏‎ 1)
Born ‎± 1679 Silverton, Devon, England‎ 2)
Baptised ‎17 Mar 1679 Silverton, Devon, England 2)

Notes: Henry Twowatters (or Towatters or Twowalters) Junior.

Married ‎25 Feb 1704/05 Silverton, Devon, England 3)
to:

woman Honour Saunders‏‎


Notes: Probably Honour Saunders.

Identifying the mother of Margaret Twowatters is difficult due to multiple individuals called Henry Twowatters living concurrently.

Four baptism records exist for children born to Henry Twowatters and Grace between 1700 and 1706: Grace, William, Jane and Mary.
Then there is a baptism records for a child of Henry and Elizabeth: Betty in 1733,
There there are baptism records for children born to Henry Twowalters Junior: Margaret in 1713, Mary in 1715, and a Mary, daughter of Henry Junior is buried in 1713.
And finally there are births to Henry: Henry in 1718, and John in 1722.

Henry Twowatters marries Grace Bayly in 1696. They are presumably the parents of the first four children. Grace is Henry Senior's second wife - his first (Joane) dies in 1694.
Henry Twowalters Junr marries Honor Saunders in 1704. They would seem to be the parents of Margaret and the two Mary. Henry Twowalters Elder is buried in 1717, which would suggest the births in 1718 and 1722 are also to Henry Junior - the epiphet now dropped as he was then the only Henry.

This hypothesis, though, is complicated by the fact that there is only one burial record for an Honour Twowatters, and that's dated 1707. While that record might be for Honour Saunders (in which case Henry must have re-married and that second wife would be Margaret's mother), it has been considered unlikely, on the basis that the parish records for c1707, Silverton are good quality, highlighting when individuals who die are wives/husbands, or children. Additionally there is no record for a re-marriage. On the contrary, there is quite a gap between Honour's marriage and Henry's first confirmed child.
