Notes Margaret and her parents show up in the 1744 Wyberton Parish Records in a single line: “Aug 16. Margaret Daughter of Nathaniel Billiard Martha his Wife. Baptized.” One year later in the same records, the baptism of Gertrude Billyard, daughter of Nathaniel and Margaret Billyard, is recorded. It is not clear why the clerk wrote “Martha”; opening the possibility that there was another Nathaniel Billiard in the area with a different family.
