• Notes

  http://www.genealogy.ianskipworth.com/pdf/skipsjohnhalton.pdf "Jemima's birth date is from the family bible with no surname or place of origin. No baptism for Jemima BILTON has been found, and she may have been Jemima SANDS daughter of Elizabeth SANDS baptised on 21 Dec 1777, at Trusthorpe, Lincolnshire. [Baptism date matches birthdate in family bible.] Had Elizabeth been unmarried the register is likely to have stated 'bastard,' so it appears that Jemima's father was deceased, mirroring the circumstances of Jemima's own daughter's baptism in 1799. John Skipworth (junior) was a witness at the marriage of William Bilton and Jemima Sands on 10 Jan 1799 at Halton Holegate. The register records the baptism of Elizabeth daughter of Jemima Bilton on 27 Oct 1799, William having apparently died. John appears to have married the widow, and her daughter is recorded as Elizabeth Skipworth in the family bible. Jemima's grandson named Sands Skipworth supports this scenario. "
