Just finished research on Gaunt and Stevenson families but it was difficult as lots of wrong entries as regards relationships and ages and most of Ancestry trees wrong as usual

did you need anything on the Gaunts that we can help with?

This George Gaunt
https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... =465949001

Was born out of wedlock to his mother Sarah Gaunt and he notes Stepfather William Steventon on marriage Cert.

Freereg marriage 10/4/1882 St. Paul Tipton Staffs.
George Gaunt 22 Bach Puddler Tipton father William Steventon Mill Furnaceman
Emma Schofield 19 Sp. Tipton father James Schofield Miner
Witnesses :- Joseph Southall & Sarah Jane Spittle
Note :- Although father is shown as William Steventon it would appear George was born out of Wedlock to Sarah Gaunt .
George Gaunt baptised 9/10/1859 St. Mary Bilston mother Sarah Gaunt
William Steventon was his Stepfather

He remained Gaunt until 1911 but I think he became Steventon after that

Nothing on Aquilla Parsons other than what you have on bcc

is this him
