On This Day - January 28
JONATHAN PERCIVALL was born Janaury 28, 1680. He was the son Samuel Percivall (1648-1684) and Elizabeth Porter (abt 1660-aft 1681). They were married in Manchester, Lancashire, England, the same place that Johnathan was born. On January 6, 1703 Jonathan married Mary Hatton in Cheshire, England where Jonathan was a butcher. Son Benet was born in 1704 and died a year later. Peter was born 1706 and died in 1732. Thomas was born in 1707 and Benjamin in 1708. Unfortunately, Mary died shortly after the birth of Benjamin. Johnathan remarried later that year to Mary Mills. They had seven children between 1710 and 1723. Johnathan died in November of 1723 in Over Parish, Cheshire, England.
My interest in genealogy began when I was only 10 years old. I was lucky that there were family members who had done research and shared it with the cousins. Then my parents, after they retired, also sought out relatives and handed down piles of paper. I was the one that put all the names and dates into a genealogy program - back in the old days when floppy discs were still popular. Now I'm retired and attempting to add the stories to all the dates.
