I have an interest in your JAMES/BAYLIS.HANNAH BAYLIS married RICHARD JAMES at Newland on 30 March 1837, I have a copy of the marriage certificate. A son,Richard was born to them in 1838 who was baptised at BREAM 14 October 1838. Richard, the father, was killed in an accident at a Pit on 3 September 1838 at the age of 25. (I have a copy of the death certificate, he was an iron miner). On 28 July 1841 SAMUEL PREEST JAMES was born to HANNAH JAMES formerly BAYLIS widow. I have a copy of the birth certificate and the father is shown as SAMUEL PREEST.
HANNAH married SAMUEL ROBERTS at PARKEND on 28 July 1850 and had 4 more children.
I know that RICHARD JAMES' father was also RICHARD and occupation on marriage certificate was miner but it is such a common name that I am unable to pinpoint for certain his family. I hope this information is of some help to you.
