Dilemma: 2 Francises, 11 children listed
The overview says John and Susannah took 7 seven children and many grandchildren to Pennsylvania on 'The Welcome.' John's profile lists 11 children. Thomas didn't migrate as he died in London in 1676. So that's down to 10. What of the remaining 3?
There is an inconsistency in that there are two Francises, both born Feb. 8, 1661 but with death dates of 1692 and before 1682. And both died in England. Francis no. 1 was supposedly 22 when his family left and died at 31; Francis #2 died supposedly before he was 21/2 and before his family left. Strange that Francis #1 / #2 at 21 wouldn't have joined the family on The Welcome especially as his father sold all his holdings to move his family to the New World.
The last three children are out of birth order. Could they be erroneously added to the list? Or could the number of children migrating be more than the stated 7?
