I’im just wondering why people are including the middle name Backshell for this person as I don’t see it in any records for him or his descendants. I am however a DNA match for one of his descendants and it would make most sense if his mother’s maiden name was Backshell and her father was John Backshell the miller in Battle Sussex. He is my 4th GG. In the Backshell family the daughters tended to include their family name in the second names of their children.
Any more information would be great!
