Lee...weren't you the one who told me about that article...It definitely
sounds interesting...I am interested in what some of the other researchers
think.

Subject: {not a subscriber} Another Gallup Child?


> With all of the activity on the Gallup list, I think that it would be
interesting what others think of the theory of an additional child of John
Gallup, the immigrant. An article in The American Genealogist, Vol. 68, No.
1, Jan 1993, pp. 11-13, discovered a baptismal record for a John Gallup,
baptized 11 July 1630, at St. Mary's Church in Bridport. This was four
months after the immigrant John Gallup and his eldest son, John, sailed for
America. Christobel's reluctance to sail with her husband is well known,
and the author of the TAG article speculates that she was pregnant with the
child that was baptozed in July 1630, and therefore did not travel at that
time. He further speculates that Christobel named the child John because
she feared that would never see her husband (John) or eldest son (John)
again. According to the TAG article, the second John child must have died
young.
