  Notes	Henry and Hannah have been proposed by Ancestry DNA as potential MRCAs of a number of DNA matches with David Simpson. At this moment I cannot confirm the connection but I have added them in order to have a couple to hang the children off. [18/08/2024] Update [05/10/2024] I believe the above to be correct so have now added the marriage.
