Baptism of Samuel Dennis

Found online, a baptism record from the Stansted Mountfitchet England Parish Register.

Samuell son of Benjamin Denis born 2 November 1650 and baptised 5 January.

So this confirms my belief that Samuel Dennis was the son of Benjamin. I also found a record of a will for one Thomas Dennis Sr. dated 1679, from a nearby town who was also a bricklayer like Samuel and Benjamin. Seems like a good candidate to be an ancestor or relative of Samuel as well. I am sending for a copy of the will.
