My 4x great grandmother, Rebecca Light, was born approx. 1796 in Revelstoke, and was baptised in Newton Ferrers to Philip and Mary on 6 November 1796.
She was married to John Garland Williams on 7 July 1819, at St Andrews, Plymouth. Witnesses were John Mildren and Sampson Light. She then moved to St Ives in Cornwall, where her name was transcribed as "Knight" and had 10 children, one of whom she called Philip Knight Williams.
If anyone is connected to this family, I would be most grateful to hear from you, as I cannot get past Philip Light and Mary (unknown). I have started to research a Sampson Light, as he appears to have been born 2 year's before Rebecca, so may be her brother, but I haven't yet found his baptism.
Any help would be very much appreciated. Beccy
