Terry,

I think Richard's (1727) father was Jacob born 12/06/1697 and baptised Redbrook 03/04/1698 married to Sarah and his father was Jacob baptised 09/04/1677 St. Briavels and buried 05/05/1707 or 1715 married to Elizabeth (no marriage dates). His father was Richard James b 1650c who was buried in Redbrook 26/11/1712 married to Maria.

I have found the James to be very confusing there were too many in the Forest!
