Shared note

b between 1741 and 1744, near to High Littleton.
It looks quite likely that she was baptised at Camerton 22 Apr 1744, and that the priest made a mistake when registering her baptism. He wrote "Martha baptised 22 Apr 1744, daughter of Samuel and Ann". There is no record of any "Samuel and Ann". There is a "Samuel and Dorothy", who started having children in 1736 at Camerton. Then there is a "John and Ann", whose first registered child was in 1746 at Camerton. It is most likely that Martha was instead daughter of John and Ann. The dates fit. She was born in 1744, and so in 1762 when she married, she was "between 18 and 21", as required by the declarations in her marriage licence, which her father John underwrote.
John and Ann had other children between 1746 and 1750, when Ann dies.
Anyway, there are no other Martha Evans anywhere in Somerset that were born between 1741 and 1744 with father John.
Siblings:
b 5 Jan 1746 John Evans son of John Evans and Ann at Camerton
b 18 Jun 1748 James Evans, son of John and Ann at Camerton
b 15 Apr 1750 Samuel Evans, son of John and Ann at Camerton

m 11 Apr 1762 at High Littleton to John Parsons. At the time of the marriage, he is over 21 (i.e. b before 1741), and a yeoman of Timsbury, while she was a minor (over 18 but under 21, born between 1741 and 1744) from High Littleton, father John Evans.

d 30 Jun 1772 at High Littleton.
