Phillep Stitson & Richard Wakeham II Family

Nicholas Wakeham was born on September 28, 1667, in Modbury, Devon, England, to Richard Wakeham II and Phillep Stitson. He lived during the late 17th and early 18th centuries, a period marked by both political change and the continuing development of rural communities in Devon. Nicholas married a woman named Mary, who was born in 1664 and passed away in 1701. Together, they had at least one child, also named Nicholas Wakeham, born in 1687 in Modbury.

Nicholas Wakeham died on February 4, 1704, at the age of 36, and was buried in South Pool, a village in the South Hams District of Devon, England. His life, like many of his time, is traced primarily through parish records including births, marriages, and burials, reflecting the local and generational continuity of families in Devon.
