Family talk:Richard Knowles and Martha Cobb (1)


marriage date [26 October 2010]

I removed the marriage date of about 1703 because Richard would have only been about 15 at the time. I replaced it with a date of about 1712, relying on an article in Cape Cod Library of Local History and Genealogy The old date of 1703 was probably intended to say after 1703 since Martha witnessed a will as Martha Cobb in 1703, but she was definitely married by 1712 when she proved that will as Martha Knowles. Given the birth of eldest daughter in 1713, 1712 seems to be a better estimation of when they married. --Jrich 11:19, 26 October 2010 (EDT)
