    I like Warwick's view about his ancestors... let's call it journey. My grandfather slept with his fiancé's sister and my dad was the result of that affair. It's crazy to even think that if the affair never happened, I wouldn't be here.

    If laws back then were different for marriages that didn’t work, they could be settled amicably before moving on. It sounds like quite a whirlwind here having to keep one step ahead of the law & raise two families. It’s fascinating to learn about our ancestors. Thank you so much! 🦋

      Of course, it's Warwick Davis, star of Harry Potter as Professor Filius Flitwick.

    I had an ancestor who married sisters while both were still alive.

    My 7th great-grandfather spent a year in prison for bigamy. He only had children with his first wife. He died a year after leaving, at only 28 years old.

    Interesting that he didn't marry Sarah until 1856, when I believe all of his children would have been 16 years or older - practically adults and all but one not living at home in 1861.

    Family names passed down can cause some confusion. I know a family that for generations every family named one son Duncan. In the 1870s there are 3 birth records, with in a year, that makes it look like Duncan had 3 wives in town.

      I have at least 4 generations in my family with the same name, 3 are direct descendents.

    Is it not legal to divorce according to the church of England?

      It was legal, it was just taboo.

      um The Church of England was created because King Henry VIII wanted a divorce. then again he divorced like what 7 times?

      They were hard to get and expensive due to legal fees and many poorer people couldn't afford them.

    If you're stressed out with 6 kids running around, and already have a wife, do you then go marry another and have a 7th? I would think you don't. Did they know of one another? Who knows, it's not my story to know either.

    Archaic? The boy had to survive in the world without support. He was taught life skills, abilities.

    I am a double, what that means is that the guy maybe a clone of a dead man. That would make him look this way, and it would also explain how his dead relative lived a double life, under an alias! Normal humans dont look like over grown children unless they are a living clone of a dead person. This guy here is a clone of dead person probably!

      Im guessing he means someone dies then someone else assumes their identity. Thats my guess of what he means.
