A very interesting note about John and Judith Townsend is found here: http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=tomt&id=I7891 This bit of history taken from: Title: Memorial of John, Henry, and Richard Townsend and Their Descendants, 1865. Publication: Townsend Society

Antony Maitland's records say this John died with his mother during childbirth and I do notice he was born the same day his mother died. But the Townsend Society Records show he grew up to marry Judith Townsend. I don't know who is right; but have accepted the Townsend Society records.
