List of Thomas Wedgeworth's children
Liz - Thanks for the idea of posting a list of Thomas children for the Forum. The source of this information is from Henry C. Peden, Jr.'s book "St.John and St.George's Parish Registers". Thomas Wedgeworth married Rebecca Passmore Jan.1741. Elinore born 12 Oct 1741. Ann born 2 May 1743,John born 22 June 1745, Thomas born 19 March 1747, Mary born 25 Feb 1748, Rebecca born ? . Marriages listed are Elinore m. John Philber 11 Aug 1768, Thomas m. Mary Wyle 18 Aug 1768,and Rebecca m. 19 FEb 1760 to James Tibbett. All of these listing are for St.John's Church in Harford Co., Maryland. Please note that our William is NOT INCLUDED on this record. So actually we have NO PROOF that Thomas is William's father. Family oral tradition holds that Thomas is his father, but there is no documentation for this. However, keep in mind that Thomas & Rebecca may have other children unknown to us, and that they may have moved to Chanceford Township, York County, PA at some time, where William was born (we think!) or at least where William lived in later life as an adult before moving to Abbeville, SC. Also keep in mind that York Co.,PA lies right on the border with Harford Co. MD. More research needs to be done on Thomas and his family, but so far no one has been able to find anything. If you'd like a copy of the Church Register entries, let me know. Phyllis
