Baptism of John/Johannes:

The record book of the Penistone church, documents the baptism of Johannes Wainwright, filius [son] of John/Johannis Wainwright on Oct 17, 1668.

Note that the next-to-last letters of the first names of father and son are different. This was due to the use of Latin spelling of the name for a child, (which reverted to the adult spelling when the child became an adult).

Baptism of Hannah:

We are still researching documentation on this,

Marriage:

We are still researching documentation on this, (which should provide her maiden surname).

Baptism of son John/Johannes:

The record book of the Penistone church, documents the baptism of Johes.[Johannes] [John] son of Johis. [Johannis] [John] Wainwright of Th [Thurlstone], on April 4, 1707.
