James Ransome is on Geni with impossible children
* father James Ransome
* mother Elizabeth Ransome
* born 1717
* died 1745
* married 1746 Mary Ransome

Children
* 1745 John Ransome, Infant died 1745
* 1746 John Ransome, Infant died 1746
* 1749 Elizabeth Ransome
* 1751 Thomas Ransome
* 1754 Edward Ransome
* 1755 Mary Ransome
* 1758 Sarah Ransome
* 1760 Hannah Ransome
* 1763 Ann Ransome
* 1766 John Ransome
* 1768 Richard Ransome
* 1770 Joseph Ransome
* 1774 John James Ransom

If he died in 1745 then he could not have married in 1746 and then had children

He has 4 children called John, 2died young but the other 2 appear to have been alive at the same time

His children are born over a 29 year period with the same wife

Can anyone add any information on this family?

Is the list of children from an internet tree?

not sure what you mean by internet tree?

I found this record within the MyHeritage site

My heritage is an internet tree.

Internet tree can be amazing or totally incorrect - does it contain sources like birth records, death records, marriage records, wills, newspaper stories?

I have added some baptism records for some of his earlier children (see timeline) but have not been able to confirm the later children yet.

found another reference in an Internet Tree but no children listed. Source lists birth and marriage details but not death.
