Looking for some help on my Griffiths Line

John Griffiths Mar. Eliz. Miles in 1732 St. Michaels ,Glos,she was from Ross on Wye and he from Great Dean (cannot find this place)
They had family in Ross on Wye, Ester in 1733 who mar, William Bower
Henry 1738 " ?
William 1743 " Marg. Mayoe
Thomas 1744 " Mary Harrison 2nd Ann Hone
Elizabeth 1744 " Evans
Then they show up in Mitcheldean and two more children,
George in 1748 who mar. Sarah Brayne
Mary 1748 " ? Williams
I,m wondering are they all from the same family or two different John,s?

John died in Ruardean in 1804 age 84, born in 1720, which if married in 1732 would give him
12 at marriage, so must be another John.

Found a John born 1706 in Ledbury Parents Rees & Francis
" 1708 " " John & Mary
" 1716 Ross on Wye " Thomas & Eliz.
The latter is more likely giving him 16 at marriage his wife Eliz. Was born 1711, also could be a John from another shire.

My line is Hannah Griffiths, dau. of George Griffiths & Sarah Brayne, who mar. Samuel Fryer, son of Thomas Fryer & Ester Bower, her mother was Ester Griffiths, So would like to know when John was born and who were his parents. Looks like Hannah Griffiths and Samuel were 2nd cousins, his grandmother was Ester Griffiths, who was a brother to Hannah,s father George,if
indeed they are all from the same family.
Also found an entry for a John Griffiths bap. 1737 grandson of widow Miller (midwife), I wonder if it should be Miles.

Many Thanks & A Merry Xmas to All. Charles
