    • 1780 Chellaston Parish Registry reads "James Spurious Son of Ann Astle, Spinster & William Harrison, a married man. Privately baptized August 5th"

      Thee word "Spurious", meaning illegitimate, was incorrectly transcribed as "Spannons" or "Spanons" and has been perpetuated for generations. There is no documented records showing that James had a middle name.

    James Astle - Christening Record
    "James Spurious Son of Ann Astle, Spinster & William Harrison, a married man. Privately baptized August 5th."

    There is confusion on James having a middle name. The correct transcription of this record is spurious (not Spannons) indicating he was illegitimate. Please note the example highlighted record on the left of the record that also shows "spurious".
