FAMILY
Mary d/o William and Christian Goodhew was christened at St Mary Magdelene on 17 Mar, 1706.
She was 16, and six-months pregnant, when she married Thomas Brown on June 12, 1722. They christened their first child three months later. (This was a pattern repeated by her daughter Mary Brown, who christened her first child four months after her wedding, and granddaughter Mary Wells, who celebrated her wedding the same day she christened a natural daughter.)
The parish register records the births of seven of Thomas and Mary's children between 1722 and 1739, including our ancestor the Mary Brown who married John Wills.
