Other information; Jane's baptism record gives her mother's name as Elizabeth.

Birth*

John SHEPHERD was born circa 1650.

Note*

Other information; Had a wife whose Christian name was not given, who was presented for recusancy in 1682. There was also a John SHEPHERD of Stourton in the 1706 census of Catholics. The Anglican baptism records have the baptism in 1704 of Mary, the daughter of John and Mary SHEPHERD. I believe that this is a too late to be the same couple who were presented in 1682. Therefore, I have created another John SHEPHERD, with a wife Mary, and assigned the second as the son of the first. Burial records should clarify this.¹

Residence*

He lived at Stourton.

Recusancy*

He was convicted of being a Catholic Recusant on 1682 at Stourton, Wiltshire, England.¹

She was aged 20 in the 1841 census and lived at Pen Pitts, Penselwood, Somerset, England.

Note*

Other information; Louisa was living with Robert and Fanny CARTER in 1841 and was listed as Louisa CARTER. Charles and Cecily, who are recorded as the children of Robert and Fanny in the Bonham registers, were witnesses at the second wedding of Louisa in 1848. It is assumed that they were her siblings. It is assumed that the marriage of William Hurden and Louisa Shepherd in 1843 in Bonham refers to this Louisa, and that she was born illegitimately, the dau of Fanny Shepherd. This would be why no father was listed on her marriage certificate. It is assumed that Robert CARTER was her father, as he apparently married her mother within a few months of her birth, although no marriage record has been located. There are many assumptions in this particular part of the family, and this should be reviwed each time new data is acquired.
