On the IGI there are only two Humphrey Potter's baptised in the 1780s, both to Humphrey and Sophia in Worth, Sussex. Presumbly one died as a child. There is a likely marriage of the other one in 1835, also in Worth.

Humphrey married Ann AKERS, daughter of James AKERS and Sarah, on 5 Apr 1822 in Stepney, London, England. (Ann AKERS was born circa 1801 in Enfield, Middlesex, England, baptised on 19 Apr 1801 in Enfield, Middlesex, England and died circa 1852 in ?.)
