Charity Way 1792-1866 married Samuel Talbott 1797-1870 Samuel and Charity lived in the village of Sparkford, Somerset. Our oral family history gives no more information on Charity and her family. Their census returns state that Charity was born in the local town of Wincanton.
We have no definite Ancestry DNA matches with the Way family. This is not surprising as Charity seems to have been the only surviving offspring of Benjamin Way and Mary Thomas, both born in the 1750s. Of Benjamin’s siblings two definitely died in infancy and three brothers may have lived into adulthood. Only a few Ancestry trees include Ways born in Wincanton in the 18th century that are linked in the list below. Carolyn considers that the trees including Charity’s grandfather Charles Way 1732-1778 are suspect. These show Charles & Susanna’s daughter Mary marrying Matthew Buck in London. These trees include no evidence that their Mary Way was born in Wincanton while Wincanton registers show that she died in infancy.
