Marriage Notes 




240810:

If indeed Josua was married twice, with a first wife named Bennet (or Benneth) bearing him four children, then the marriage of Joshua and Sarah must have followed the date of birth of the last of these four children and been before the date of birth of the three they bore together, Therefore they would have been married between 1896 and 1905.


       Children:
                1. Cicily Worthman
                2. Bennet Worthman

Notes
General:
240810:

The two purported marriages of Joshua Worthman on Bobbye Legge's Ancestry.com family tree are probably one and the same, or at least the children of one are mixed up with the children of the other, because it does not make sense for his second wife to name one of her children after his first wife, Benneth (or bennet as it shows on the 1921 Census) or alternately for his first wife Benneth to name a daughter Sarah, which was his (apparently) second wife's name. Similarly, it would appear from the blended family in the 1921 Census that Sarah was not Cranford by birth. That was the name of her first husband and her son Martin. However, it is also possible that she had Martin out of wedlock and that he bears her maiden name.
