I am looking for William Phelps who married Elinor Wartman in Abenhall in 1621. Elinor died in Abenhall in 1655. I belive he is the father of William Phelps(b.1629, Abenhall) who married Alice Spillman (b. 1639, Taynton) in Taynton in 1659.
What is confusing me is that werever I look I come up against the notion that they travelled to America. This does not really stack up as there are too many inconsistancies.
I know I am OK as far as William 1629 but if anyone has any ideas where to go from here it would be much appreciated?

Martin.
