Notes
1. There appears to be no record for the marriage of William (baptised at North Tamerton in 1722, son of Philip Yeo and Margaret Bond) and Bridget (baptised at Poughill near Bude in 1725).
2. Why are there no records of daughters? How did their sons come to marry and settle at widely differing locations? Why is there no record of any of the members of the family emigrating?
3. We hold a detailed pedigree of William and Catherine’s family, compiled in the 1980s by a correspondent of Sheila Yeo.
4. Bridget’s daughter Bridget Yeo Johns married her first cousin William Yeo Martin, son of her sister Catherine.
