Missing bapts in moneyed families are very unusual - needed to show legitimacy and thus rightful claim in any will thus such families generally careful to ensure births registered
anyway I have been sent an apology: - extracted portion (after a sequence of 'threatening emails prior to this)

Ladies,

Yes, surprise at that. Well guess what? It appears that you were correct, and I was wrong. There was indeed a gap between Thomas Taubman and Henry Taubman which is what Ms. Coakley was trying to point out, with Mary Moore's early demise. However it was when DJ Douglas spread it all out that I saw it in black and white. I had been keeping up with the "chatter" concerning my family on the site. This does not change my claim of royal ancestry, sorry Frances, but to the point, you indeed were correct. I merely need (or not) to find John Taubman's spouse. I will also say that thanks to you Sue, the important lineage remains, as you show the intact connection between John, Henry, and George.
