According to the will of Sarah HARVEY (previously WILLS, maiden name CUMMINS) her children were Sarah and Mary Ann, born WILLS (Elizabeth presumably pre-deceased her) and Job, Ruth and John, born HARVEY. Sarah's death notice states that she was born in “Culhampton, near Exeter, Devon”.
Bizarrely Richard HARVEY and Sarah WILLS appear to have married twice. The signature of Richard in 1817 appears identical to the one in 1815.
Richard HARVEY, widower, married Sarah WILLS (marital status not given) on 21 April 1817 in Hornsey, Middlesex.
