Re: UK Sewell prior to 1695
Dear Pam, You are so kind. I have seen these two IGI posts previously, some years ago. I am thinking that I considered the two Timothy's one and the same; perhaps they are, and perhaps they aren't. One of the IGI entries is from parish records while the other is from an LDS member, thus it may have happened that the member saw the original copy of the parish records and coupled it with perhaps family and/or anecdotal records.
That being said, I also did some leg work finding some published genealogies for the Timothy & Jane issue--this was many years ago so my memory isn't specific, but I believe they remained in the UK for several generations. If I am not mistaken, I also believe that this Timothy & Jane were related to Barnard--at least in the genealogies.
I do not believe, however, that there was much source material attached to the genealogy(s) that I looked at, and we all are aware that often people get mixed up because they have the same name & approximate birth dates, and sometimes reside in same or near environs.
I haven't chased this trail of Timothy>Barnard for a good long time, and perhaps it is time for me to refresh my memories and dig a bit more.
I truly thank you for your kindness in contacting me. Susan
