Robert Waters married Mary White on 20 November 1791 at the parish church of St Mary, Barnes, Surrey.

[FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]Barn Elms was not a parish but the name of a private estate, which, in the 1790s was in the ownership of the Hoare family. The history of the estate is easily found via Google.

Family Wills are often a good source of information about family relationships.

The Will of John Waters of Barnes, Surrey is available from The National Archives and can be downloaded at modest cost via Documents Online on TNA website. The same site offers a small number of Wills for the name De la Pole.

There are no Waters' family Wills proved in the Archdeaconry of Surrey or the Consistory Court of Surrey in the timeframe. There are a fair number of Surrey Wills for the surname White but none specifically in Barnes.
