Thanks. Bristol. :rolleyes:

I remember you asking about a hawker in Bristol. Is it possible we have 2x Daniel PEACOCK both hawkers and one from Hanham and one from Bristol?

We return to the 1859 marriage that seems to fit in some ways but not in others.

1859 Marriage solemnized at The Parish Church in the Parish of St. Paul in the County of Bristol
No. 397 - September 14 -
Joseph Peacock - full - Bachelor - Carpenter - St. Paul's - Daniel Peacock - Hawker
Elizabeth Lear - full - Spinster - - St. George's Co of Gloucester - Aaron Lear - ? ?
Married in the Parish Church according to the Rites and Ceremonies of the Established Church, by License, by me Hugh Allan ?
Both signed
Witnesses: James Lear, Wm. White ?

Residence at time of marriage:

St Pauls & St George's ?? Does that fit for a couple who have been together since 1841 or 1842?

1841
HO107 Piece 361 Book/Folio 27 Page 14
Civil Parish: Bitton
Registration District: Keynsham
Sub District: Oldland
Address: Warmley Hill Bitton Oldland
HODGES, George M 25 1816
HODGES, Elizabeth F 25 1816
HODGES, George M 6 1835
HODGES, Elizabeth F 3 1838
LEAR, Elizabeth F 20 1821 Shoemaker
NIPKIN, - M 25 1816
LEAR, James M 20 1821 Agricultural labourer


The witness James LEAR is a problem if I fit that marriage into my tree, but probably not a problem if that Joseph is the son of Daniel of Bristol.

So I have a copy of a marriage that probably does not fit in my tree.

No, father Daniel is the fish monger in Hanham.

Starting with this census which has to be explained to understand: :2fun:

1841
HO107 Piece 361 Book/Folio 27 Page 14
Registration District: Keynsham
Sub District: Oldland
Civil Parish: Bitton
Address: Warmley Hill Bitton Oldland
HODGES, George M 25 1816
HODGES, Elizabeth F 25 1816
HODGES, George M 6 1835
HODGES, Elizabeth F 3 1838
LEAR, Elizabeth F 20 1821 Shoemaker
NIPKIN, - M 25 1816
LEAR, James M 20 1821 Agricultural labourer

George senior is LEWTON but he was born before his parents married so in this census he is using his mother's name HODGES.

His father is Aaron LEWTON but he was also born before his parents married so he is using the name LEAR

So Elizabeth and Joseph LEAR in the census are siblings of George senior but both born after parents married.

There is a younger sibling Joseph baptised 19th March 1826 at Hanham Abbots, probably during his first year.

So a Joseph LEAR or LEWTON born abt 1826 in 1841 other than this one:

1841

Sub-RD: Bitton

Joseph Lear age 15 occ coal-----
Mary Lear age 12 occ pin-----
All born in county.

Here he is in 1851 (married in 1847 St Mary's Bitton)

I haven't been able to rate this marriage as a part, I would put it on hold..

I know who this is:

LEAR, Elizabeth F 20 1821 Shoemaker
I have a copy of the birth reg of brother George's daughter.

George married Elizabeth PEACOCK dau of Daniel the fish monger of Hanham.

Elizabeth's younger brother Joseph married Mary PEACOCK dau of Daniel the fish monger of Hanham.

The big question. Did Elizabeth marry Joseph son of Daniel the fish monger of Hanham?

I'm not so sure there is a 2nd Daniel PEACOCK and by coincidence a hawker/fish monger as well.

The Bristol and Avon Baptism CD 1754-1812.

Daniel Peacock Baptised 2 March 1794 at Hanham son of Isaac & Hannah at age 2 years

This one is his son

Daniel Peacock
England, Births and Christenings, 1538-1975
christening: 12 Aug 1832 Oldland, Gloucester, England
residence: Oldland, Gloucester, England
parents: Daniel Peacock, Ann

and I can't find another apart from this one:

Births Mar 1841
Peacock Daniel Humphries Keynsham 11 129

Deaths Mar 1842
PEACOCK Daniel Humphrey Keynsham 11 109
