John Dolman 1728 Calne Wiltshire

Hi from NZ,

I am just researching my early Dolman line and have a query.

John Dolman chr 24 Mar 1728, s/o John Dolman and Mary Coole.

I notice that everyone has him married to Mary Green, and I see there was a marriage of a John Dolman to a Mary Green 25 Aug 1761, but IGI (several entries) state that this particular John married Mary Hughes 2 May 1758. Has anyone investigated this and confirmed which Mary he did marry please?

Hope someone can help,
Cheryl

HI Cheryl,
If you look at some of the postings for January 2007, they might help.

Some research undertaken to see if the same John married both Marys or whether John's father (John!) married one of them.
