Hi Mary
Yes I have seen those entries (they are actually 1808 & 1810) which makes it more confusing as the William I want was born 1808 so he can't be the one if they had another child with the same name two years later.
Although I am sure I read somewhere that people named their children sometimes with the same name.. or was this in a different era?
