Generation No. 1
1.
John1 DRING1,2,3,4 was born Bef. 16575,

and died Unknown. He married (2) Joane
HILLS12,13 14 April 1692 in St Mary Magdalene, Warboys,
Huntingdonshire14,15,16,17.
She was born Abt. 167218, and died Abt. March 1721/22
in Warboys, Huntingdonshire19,20. He married (3) Elizabeth WOMERSLEY21,22

and died Abt. February 1727/2826.
Notes
for John DRING:
The
eariest baptism we have for a child of John DRING is August 1693 which is
sixteen months after he married Joanne HILLS.
However, this first child, and four later ones are all shown with the
mother as Mary. The following eight
children have Joane shown as their mother.
Jim
BECK and John ROWELL have both suggested that all the children had the one
mother, Joane, and that would seem to be the case, given the date of the
John/Joane marriage.
However,
why was Mary shown as the mother for the earlier children? Angela EDMONDS has found a John DRING/Mary
SMITH marriage in 1682 in All Saints, Huntingdonshire. There are, however, no
children baptised in that church for these parents. It could be that John was married to this
Mary, they went to Warboys where they lived for up to ten years, and because
the Warboys clerk was used to "John and Mary" he put the incorrect
name in the baptism register for the children of "John and
Joane".
For
the time being John is shown as marrying three time, but it is obvious that
more research is required.

Notes
for William DRING:
Information
from Jim BECK 14/4/1984
"The
parish register is confusing regarding the children of John and Joan
DRING. The first five are born as
children of John and Mary, the last nine are listed as children of John and
Joane. But apparently the mother is all
the same person; Joane HILLS.

The
information about Hannah and Oliver comes from another society member, James
BECK, of Colorado. He pointed out that
Hannah was most likely a STOAKLEY. He
describes them as a large, landed, non-conforming family of North-East
Hunts. "They have an ample supply
of wills, but a dearth of register entries..."
