John Latham and Mary Courtice were married 26 Sept 1808 at St. Philip and St Jacob parish, Bristol England. This a known fact backed up by records. In searching for their parents and places of birth I have several possibilities.
1) a John Latham,born 12 Sept 1785, Brendon, Eng; parents John Latham and Elizabeth Sloeley and Mary Courtice born 19 Dec 1781 Brendon(Linton) Eng,.parents John Courtice and Mary Richards.
2) a John Latham born 10 Oct 1782, Bristol, Eng.,parents Moses Latham and Margaret Elliot This John died 8 Aug 1852, Abingdon Virginia USA. Mary died 1868 Abingdon Va.
3) a John Latham born abt 1783 Bristol and died about 1852 in Bristol, Eng.

Samuel Latham a child of John Latham and Mary Courtice came to the USA abt 1837 and lived in New York and New Jersey where the family lives today. If anyone has proven information regarding John Latham and his wife Mary Courtice I would appreciate a contact
Thank you
