    Baptisms in Long Bennnington [sic] 1778 / February 3d Martha, dau[ghte]r of John and Elisabeth Burden

    This baptism has been linked to the Martha Burden who married William Singleton at Long Bennington in 1801 on the basis that it is in the same parish in which they married, at the time implied by the age given when she died, and one of the witnesses to the marriage was John Burden, which was the name of the father of the child baptised in 1778.
