Thomas was
first married in 1694 at Middleton Stoney, but was living at Stratton Audley. He died in 1743 so a birth date of around
1670 is indicated. The registers of
Stratton Audley however have not survived before 1696; the first KING entries
are in 1700, when several KING families were baptising children.
It seems likely that Thomas was born there. No suitable baptism of Thomas was found at Middleton Stoney where
registers start much earlier
Robert
KING-8 was baptised at Wendlebury in 1699, the earliest known child of Thomas
& Margaret. The only suitable m in
the OXF m index was found at Middleton Stoney.
m
22Oct1696 Thomas KING wid & Margaret SMYTH als HADDON at Middleton Stoney
Middleton
Stoney is only 3 miles from Wendlebury and the combination of name date and
place leaves little doubt that this is the correct marriage. The alias suggests that Margaret was
previously married, as was Thomas.
Thomas' first marriage took place two years previously at Middleton Stoney
m 13May1694 Thomas KING & Ann BRODERTON
at Middleton Stoney
Stratton
Audley is about 6 miles from Middleton Stoney with Bicester in between and the
m is followed by a baptism and then the burial of Ann:
