After about 2 decades of trying in vain to find a baptism/birth for my 4gt William, it's possible, thanks to a kind person who checked Find my past  for me, that he's been found.

I have a DNA cousin match at Ancestry to a Bending who has Mould(s) from Lincolnshire. My late father's DNA  matches to a Rosario. She has among her ancestors an Elizabeth Moulds born 1823 Lincolnshire. Her family tree is small, so she hasn't traced her ancestry back very far.


I also have a DNA match to Schaffner whose Mould(s) seem to have come from England, but were early settlers in Maryland,USA. They were planters. Schaffner has Goatley ancestors.
