Robert,
The 1716 William in Monmouth NJ was a son of William Tapscott the transportee and Taunton Rebel sentenced by the infamous Judge Jeffries after the Battle of Sedgemoor, were James was trying to take back the throne.
William was transported in about 1691.Several of us are working on English Baptisms to see if it is possible that the Boy Henry (va.) followed his father to the colonies and missed.
Check out the Rootsweb-L Tapscott site for a spirited discussion over the last several months.
