Descendants of YELLAND born about 1601

Notes


18. John YELLAND

In the IGI, John Yelland, christened 18 Mar 1734 and his siblings; Prudence, Elizabeth, and possibly Jane; show the father as John, no mother listed. They are in the same batch number as John Yelland and Rebecca Mallard (Mallett)'s marriage in South Tawton, Devon (C052351 and M052351); therefore, I am quite confident that John and Rebecka are their parents. Jane could possibly be the daughter of John and Mary King, married 9 Oct 1736.

In the IGI for South Tawton, John Yelland, christened 8 Mar 1709, and all of his siblings, show the parents as John and Prudence, who married 13 Mar 1695 in South Tawton.


Rebeccca MALLETT

Rebecca Mallett was recorded in the parish marriage register and the IGI as 'Mallard'; her name and several others were recorded incorrectly within a five year period in the register according to Richard Mallett [mister.mallett@ntlworld.com].


25. Jane Yelland

There are two entries in the IGI, one entry says her baptism was 3 Feb 1737 (Batch 8502332 submitted after 1991), one says 2 Feb 1737 (Batch C052351). They both say her father was John; there is no mother listed.

This is probably not the Jane, who Married William Snow; that Jane was baptised 11 Jan 1751, in Cruwys Morchard, Devon, buried 26 Apr 1828, in Clayhanger, Devon, England.

John Yelland and Mary King married 9 Oct 1736; they could be Jane's parents.
