Baptism St. Dustan and All Saints, Stepney, Tower Hamlets, Middlesex.
Baptism July 29, 1739, Amey Stagg daughter of Jno. Stagg of Rat[cliffe] cooper, and Sarah, 25 days old.
[This would make her 18 years old when she was married and 19 when her first child was born] [Also her future husband being from Ratcliffe would also seem to agree. ]
The following might refer to Amy Walton

Obituary
October 16
Age 64, the wife of Mr. Francis Walton of Horsely-down.
[The age would be out by 6 years][I now think this is unlikely, as there is a Francis Walton of Horsly Down who apprenticed as a blacksmith, then practiced as a blacksmith, not a mariner.]
