This year I am hoping to solve the ongoing Yetman mystery. I am hoping somewhere someone has information in a family bible to answer long standing questions. In 1783 at Hr Grace at the Anglican church a Joseph Yetman married a Francis Kerwick. The following year Thomas Yetman married Catherine Kerwick. I could not find any children born to either of these unions. Is Thomas and Joseph the same Thomas who married Patience Jones in 1807 and Joseph who married a Patience Jones in 1810. Children from these unions are recorded in church records. If they are the same Thomas and Joseph what happened to the marriages to the Kerwick's. Are they two different Thomas and Joseph and did they move away? There is a baptism for a Eleanor Yetman born to Joseph and Joan in 1805. She married a Joseph Parsons in 1824 and the witness was Henry Yetman who I suspect is the same Henry who married Margaret Norcott in 1834.... Who was this Joseph who married Joan ? As a aside the name Joseph and Eleanor are names that continued through my family line. Could my Henry who married in 1834 be a sibling to Eleanor born 1805. And if so who is this Joseph who married Joan. Is he a different person from the Joseph who married Francis Kerwick and Patience Jones? The more I write the more muddled it gets but who knows maybe there is a long lost slip of paper in someone's possession..
