Hi Glenn

The transcript of the Aston will was fascinating - this seems to be the will of our gggg uncle. Your Richard (b 1745 and d Jul 1829) was the son of Edward Aston b 1719 and Patient. We are descended from your Richard's younger brother Thomas (b 1747 at Coleford but registered at Newland).

Your Richard had a lot of children!

Richard b pre 1775
Susannah c 29 Oct 1775 Newland
Anna/Hannah c 12 Jan 1777
Charlotte c 27 May 1778
Amelia Amia b 1779
Betty/Elizabeth c 23 Aug 1781 Newland
Thomas c 9 Apr 1782 Newland
Jane c 15 Aug 1784 Newland
Emmanuel c 1 Apr 1787
Anna Maria/Maria b 1788
Ann(e) c 13 Jun 1790 (had illigitimate son Edward c 24 Dec 1810 Newland)
William c 16 Sept 1791 and died 1793

The will also refers to a daughter Catherine - does anyone have any information about her?

Best wishes

Carolyn
