Henry Wilton (b. ~1669) married Elizabeth Bissell (b. ~1673) in Stapleford, Cambridgeshire. They had five children, all baptised in Stapleford:
- Sarah Wilton bap. 14 Jul 1695 (Died in 1695)
- Martha Wilton bap. 27 Dec 1696
- Sarah Wilton bap. 14 Apr 1700
- Henry Wilton bap. 12 Apr 1702
- Richard Wilton bap. 7 Oct 1705 (Buried 18 Dec 1707)
Elizabeth Wilton was buried on 15 Oct 1705. (I think we can guess the cause.) Henry does not appear to remarry and there are no other children listed born to a Henry Wilton in that period with a different mother.
Henry Wilton Snr died on 27 Jun 1726 and was buried, on 30 Jun 1726, in Stapleford, Cambridgeshire.
- Martha Wilton m. Robert Reynolds in Stapleford on 14 Jan 1722.
