Jean-Vincent, 3rd Baron de Saint-Castin
Unfortunately - our paid research in early 2025 did not find a link to the Baron. We knew records in France were incomplete, but thought the experts might uncover something. We are unable to find where Daniel Castine was born, we know he married Honor Squire in 1697 in JW's boyhood church in Cornwall.
Nannie lived in Ireland for 15 years before migrating with her parents.
