A mystery to unravel- Piggin/Witton/Pyke- some answers
In Family #038, the birth certificate of Robert John 769 shows his mother to be Sarah Ann, who married Daniel Pyke. Robert was known to his son and grandson as Robert John Piggin, though is registered as a Gotts. His son Edward James only knew his grandmother when he was little and she was married to a Sam Pike with 2 sons and 2 daughters. There is no written evidence showing the name Piggin, but is he Robert's real father? See tree #038 for details.
