Descendants of Edward Heath


Generation No. 2


      3. William2 Heath (Edward1)1 was born Abt. 1550 in Ware, Hertsfordshire, England, and died Jan 1624 in Ware, Hertsfordshire, England. He married Agnes Cheney2 06 Oct 1580 in East Gremsted, Sussex, England, daughter of Robert Cheney and Joan Harrison. She was born Abt. 1560 in England, and died Unknown.

Notes for William Heath:
That William, and not either of his brothers Robert or John, was the father of the next generation of Heaths in Ware is strongly suggested by the fact that he inherited his father's house there, to the exclusion of his brothers. He was probably well established there already. Although the Ware parish registers do not include the name of the father of children baptized there in the period 1581-1604, the spacing of the baptisms strongly implies that there was only one Heath family having children in the parish in the 1580s and 1590s. Beginning in 1604, the baptismal registers include the father's name, and that year William's son Thomas was baptized there. Chronology suggests that this was William Heath's last child. Significantly, no further children for this William appear in the registers of either Ware or Great Amwell
