Married:
- There is no obvious marriage record on the internet. Possibilities are
John HOWARD and Joan ISAAC, North Tawton, 1740,
John HERD (from Bow) and Joan BATTISHILL, Colebrook 1728.
Searching for children born to John and Joan identifies nobody baptised between 1726 and 1743, and potentially people born as late as 1764, though maybe Mary 1757 is the latest. However looking at the children it definitely supports the N Tawton wedding.
Conversely N Tawton is a distance from Crediton where all the children are born.
On balance, the N Tawton marriage is preferred.
Separately, the 3 children born 1759, 1761 and 1764, all baptised in 1776 are included. This is on the basis that the earliest possible deaths for John and Joan are later (John 1781 or later, Joan 1792 or later)
