Profiles Mentioned:

I have uploaded two baptism source documents to this Profile.
One for 1665 and the other for 1680.
Firstly, please note, neither baptism gives any middle name/s.
Secondly, I think that the husband of Mary VIRGIN is more likely to be the Tho CHAUNT born in 1680 at Hinton St George, Somerset,
Mary married in 1707 at Middle Chinnock, Somerset, so her husband was either aged 42 or 27 at the time.
The marriage records states that Thomas was from West Chinnock.
Her husband's death is most likely the one in 1742 at West Chinnock.
Due to the lack of records and also the limited information provided on records in that time frame, it is hard to know for sure.

Also, Thomas CHANT & Mary VIRGIN are NOT the parents of Robert CHANT 1700 and Jeremiah CHANT 1703.
Their mother was a single woman, Mary CHANT. (No father named on the baptism records).
