Can anyone explain how Otis Cornwall, who was born and died in Burford, Shropshire, England, came to have his son, Thomas, in Terling, Essex, which is almost 200 miles away? And then go back to Burford to die and be buried? Are there any primary sources that link this Thomas to Otis?

Name coincidence?

Hello. I see Thomas listed as Otis’s son in many trees, but I’ve only found one with a source cited.

Could it be possible that Otis’s wife Catherine was from Essex, and that was why Thomas was born there? There isn’t much info on her.
