Edward Aston

  General Notes:

Veracity of birth and descendants yet to be confirmed.

The Newland Parish registers have apparently been badly damaged by rats. The first register for 1560-1667 has been badly gnawed away and so only some entries are readable, and the same applies to a lesser extent to the period 1670-1740.
