Aaron PEACOCK born Swansea

[DaveHam9]

Thanks Geoff.

I only have the 1852 Swansea one in my tree. Don't know yet where the 1848 one would fit in.

Hi Dave

It was only an observation whilst trying to make sense of your George's whereabouts.

Geoff

 

[DaveHam9]

Several Peacock families eneded up in Wales for a few years working mainly on the railways. The 1848 one could well fit in my tree somewhere.

Must be twins ...

Births Jun 1852
PEACOCK Aaron Swansea 11a 416

Births Jun 1852
PEACOCK George Swansea 11a 416

... although 1861 has Aaron as 9 and George as 8.

 

[horse]

Must be twins:

Births Jun 1852
PEACOCK Aaron Swansea 11a 416

Births Jun 1852
PEACOCK George Swansea 11a 416

The only logical conclusion looking at some of the records :biggrin:

Easy for me to say after the event

Thanks Geoff.

That complicates things. The baptism is clearly the right George.

The 1891 household St Philip & St Jacob Out might help thanks.

The 1891 household St Philip & St Jacob Out might help thanks.

I still can't find that one, there is one but he is the head, not the son and b. St. Georges, Glos.

 

[DaveHam9]

Aaron junior and his brother George sailed off to New York in 1869 and George stayed in the USA and became naturalized.
There are now lots of his Peacock descendants in Pennsylvania where he was a miner. Aaron came back to Mount Hill.

That could explain why they can't be found in 1871.


The ages 8 and 9 in 1861 would indicate they are not twins and the George born 1852 and in 1891 is a different one.

 

[horse]

Yeah, found a few trees but they have little or nothing on George and Aaron Jr

 

[horse]

The ages 8 and 9 in 1861 would indicate they are not twins and the George born 1852 and in 1891 is a different one.

So any George b. Swansea is likely to be wrong or needs double-checking

 

[DaveHam9]

Yeah. Would seen so although 1861 has them both born Poil near Swansea. The 1852 Swansea is probably Aaron unless another reg can be found. The 1853 Llanelly would fit the baptism record for George. No baptism for Aaron?

 

[DaveHam9]

Only one reg for an Aaron.

 

[horse]

Can't see another reg. They may have been bap. together, but no images with the basic records
