    Notes:

    Died:
    can't find a reliable death date

    Notes:

    Can't find reliable Birth or Death dates for Richard

    Married:
    It would seem that this is the most likely marriage of Susanna Barrett She married Richard Pocock.
    They were both "in service" at a town/village called Eastrop.

    Eastrop is only a few miles from Coleshill where Susanna was born, So this is why I think it's safe to assume that this information is correct.

    Notes:

    Cannot find burial date

    Found a Jonathan Barrett buried 1754 at Coleshill and he was described as an "Ancient Man". I have accounted for all the Jonathan's in our tree and wondered if this could possibly be
    a typo and could be our John. It would make our John about 93 at the time of his death, but he was described as "an ancient man" so this could be a possibility.

    Buried:
    Still cannot find an obvious burial date. Too many John Barrett's!

    The one found for 1700 was definately wrong as his last child was born in 1723

    Notes:

    1 May 2019

    Had another look at the reliability of this connection.
    Someone from Berks FHS facebook page had suggested to another party, that if there was a problem tracing relatives in Berks to try Wiltshire, a neighbouring county.

    Have now looked at neighbouring counties and apart from Oxford, only the following 3 have Richard's in the time scale:
    Cornwall. - Richard 1627 father John
    Richard 1633 father John
    Kent. ------Richard 1627 FATHER PAUL
    Richard 1633 father John
    Wiltshire.--Richard 1633 father John
    Richard 1636 father John
    Problem is none of these have a wife Elizabeth.
    have to accept that many early records were badly kept, which could allow for the information we are unable to find.
    That being said, the originally found Cuddesdon information is the most likely.

    Christened:
    If Richard and his sister had other siblings born in the 10 years before them, and after the marriage of their probable parents in 1607, then I can't find them.
    There are possibilities in Kirtlington and Banbury but too obscure.
