Mary Furneaux . Rob Abraham

PROVED at London 23rd July 1840 before the Judge by the oaths of Solomon Tozer the younger and Joseph Skinner the Executors to whom administration was granted having been first sworn by Commission duly to administer.

Her married name was Glanville.

Her married name was Sullivan.

      Clearly there are issues with her baptism in 1755 and a supposed child born to her who married in 1777 just 12 years later.
The most likely explanation is that the Elizabeth who married Joseph was not Mary's child.

Her married name was Maddock.

      Clearly there is a problem with Elizabeth's mother's birth in 1755 and her own marriage to Joseph in 1777. Further difficulties lie in the baptisms of Elizabeth/Joseph's children 1784-97 but marriage of the 1797 baptised Elizabeth in 1806 (according to Records of the Anglo Norman House of Glanville 1050-1080 AD).

Her married name was Glanville.

Her married name was Hele.

      Is this the Elizabeth who married William Davies/Davis in Steynton, Pembrokeshire in 1804 ?

Her married name was Taylor.

Her married name was Harter.

Her married name was Glanville.
