Starting a thread to see if we can link this Esther to other Willetts on BCC.
She married first Thomas Hawkswood, then Captain Tromans.
Here is the link:
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... &pid=26925There is this possible family:
IGI Extracted (children of Benjamin & Hannah Willetts):
NANCY WILLITTS - Christening: 15 OCT 1780 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
ESTER WILLITTS - Christening: 20 APR 1777 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
RICHARD COOPER WILLETTS - Christening: 19 OCT 1794 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
THOS. WILLETTS - Christening: 14 JAN 1770 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
BENJAMIN WILLETTS - Christening: 19 OCT 1794 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
JOHN WILLITTS - Christening: 20 APR 1783 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
I can't see any of them on BCC

Edward possibly a brother?
In the light of this went looking and found this - Extracted:
Children of William and Elizabeth Willetts:
SARAH WILLETTS - Christening: 08 JUL 1770 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
EDWARD WILLITTS - Christening: 29 NOV 1772 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
MARTHA WILLITS - Christening: 04 JUN 1775 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
ALICE WILLITTS - Christening: 16 NOV 1777 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
ELIJA WILLETTS - Christening: 23 JAN 1780 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
RUTH OR TRUE WILLITTS - Christening: 21 MAR 1784 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England
Sort of a match for:
ESTHER WILLETS
Christening: 13 JAN 1782 Halesowen, Worcester, England
Father: WM. WILLETS
Mother: ELIZ.
Except for Halesowen instead of RR

Looks good as it fills the "birth gap" and also is following the trend in the later children of biblical names!

I've put the Captain Tromans/Esther Willetts marriage on for look-up (hope I haven't doubled up).
I think we might have to archive until then, NL.

Oh, darn! Sorry NL, it's me that's confused! I had this sneaking suspicion that I'd seen a look-up, but couldn't place it. Just ignore me

NL I think I'll have to give up on this. Although there are possibilities to link Esther to other Willetts on BCC, without parents' names on the marriages (and the look-ups don't have any), I don't see how we can confirm any relationships.
Think you could archive it in case someone turns up with more information later.
