Hi Dallas and other readers. This is 5 years after your post but if you're still looking for descendants of Matthew GIMBLETT & Grace SPETTIGUE, I think I can add to your data.

One of my ancestors was John TOMS, born 1854 in Cornwall. I think he might be descended from Matthew and Grace both through his mother and his father. If I'm correct, his GG grandfather on his mother's side was one son of John GIMBLETT & Rebecca WOOD, Anthony, and his GG grandfather on his father's side was another son of this couple, Robert. I'm pretty confident of his descent through his mother (although it's not 100% confirmed) but the descent through his father is a little speculative.

DESCENT THROUGH HIS MOTHER
-->

Matthew GIMBLETT & Grace SPETTIGUE =
John GIMBLETT & Rebecca WOOD =
Anthony GIMBLETT & Dorothy BATTON =
Elizabeth GIMBLETT & John PROUT =
Simon PROUT & Elizabeth HERD =
Elizabeth PROUT & Francis TOMS =
John TOMS.

DESCENT THROUGH HIS FATHER
-->

Matthew GIMBLETT & Grace SPETTIGUE =
John GIMBLETT & Rebecca WOOD =
Robert GIMBLETT & Mary SANDERCOCK =
Ann GIMBLETT & Richard SANDERCOCK =
Mary SANDERCOCK & John TOMS =
Francis TOMS & Elizabeth Prout =
John TOMS.

The father's line is speculative because, although I know that John Toms married a "Mary", I don't know her surname. However, circumstantial evidence points to her being Mary SANDERCOCK. If anyone can confirm this, I would be most grateful!
