  • Notes 
    • RESEARCH_NOTES:
      1. The burial records for Haydon Bridge church (FHL film 991796) has an entry which is probably the sons of this William:
      -"12 May 1703, Jno., son of Wm. Muis of Haydon Bridge."

      MARRIAGE:
      1. First marriage. The marriage was duplicated in two parishes for reasons unknown:
      -Haydon Bridge church (FHL film 991796): "1 Dec 1701, Wm. Muis and Mary Talor."
      -Chollerton church (FHL film 252505): "24 Nov 1701, William Mews and mary Taylor of Haden bridge married."

      2. Second marriage. The marriage records for Haydon Bridge church (FHL film 991796): "25 May 1724, Wm. Mewis and Mary Hayles." Surprisingly the same marriage is also recorded in the Warden church records, FHL film 1068615, as: "25 May 1724, William Mewes and Mary Hayles." Haydon Bridge was a dependent chapelry subservient to Warden parish and is probably the reason for the apparent duplication of recording the marriage.
