OMG!

ELEVEN people have entered Grace Lerwill on the Pedigree resource file on FamilySearch.

They all say she was baptised on 29.08.1769 in Kentisbury, with parents Thomas Lerwill & Elizabeth Draper and they all say she died 18.06.1844 but they don't say where! - or even with what name...
Some of them also have a John Lerwill b1773 dying in Kentisbury 18.06.1844 (same date as Grace?!) others say that this chap died 28.03.1848...

I have notes about gravestones in Georgeham which include this one:
Badcock (6049)
John Badcock of North Buckland died 18th October 1850 aged 85 and his wife Grace
Died 2nd August 1858 aged 89

So did the 11 people just copy carp from each other??

No, one wrote it and 10 copied.

That's what I thought, Marg.

I think my evidence is more convincing. I don't know where they found their info though , or rather: where he or she found their info (the others copied).
