Yes the similar names are very confusing.I was really relieved to see that Newton Greenhill turn up.It helps tie things down a bit.
Yes the Goodwin children are from Mary Greenhill of St. Pauls Covent Garden d/o William Greenhill and Mary Sheriffe m. James Goodwin, widower, chemist, of St. Martin' in the Field on 19 Oct 1715 at St. Mary Magdalene, Old Fish St, London.(Mary was 23)That would make her born c. 1691 and christened 15 Dec 1691 Abotts Langley, Hertford.Don't know the childrens names.
Sarah Norton is confusing.I ordered the will because I thought she was the wife of Thomas Greenhill.She is not Thomas' wife however as the Sarah in the will marries Cleave around Nov 1785of Watford, Hertford marry 07 July 1725.Then I had assumed she was the Sarah and daughter-in law mentioned in Cleave's will however the dates are wrong as Cleave's will is written after Sarah's death and he would have no need to mention her annuity.Sarah Norton must be a first wife of Rev Cleave of Abotts Langley while Mary Smyth is the second wife and they confusingly have a daughter-in-law also named Sarah. I will search for dates of marriages.Also I don't know the son's name.I believe there is no living issue.
I downloaded two Henry Greenhill will's, one of Harrow on the Hill (possibly William of Greenhill Harrow on the Hills brother) and Henry of Madrasapatan? who comes from the Steeple-ashton line.That is your line is it not?Will get around to transcribing soon.
