Hi,
I am trying to find the children of Job Rossiter born 1791 in Rode, Somerset. His wife Christina Paradise ( sometimes listed as Christiana or Catherine) was born circa 1785 in Frome ( I believe!!). They were married in Frome on March 10th 1819.
I have the names of some of the children ( John, George, Joseph & possibly a William) but have no details about them.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.TIA.
Best wishes

Hi Alli,
Thanks for that. Am surprised that Job was born out of county. Also can you check in the same area please for a William born 1829. He may have stayed with relatives or something.
Best wishes

Hi rcuser
I have come across your post today and I am descended from Job's son George. Are you related to Job. Unfortunately, I do not have any information about a William.

Welcome to RootsChat.
This thread was last active in 2007 but I see the original poster was still active on the site in May this year so they may well pick up on your post.
You may have this but I will post it for your consideration as there was originally some uncertainty about Job's origins.
From Free Reg. Baptism. Job Rositer 19 April 1789. Lullington (All Saints). Parents James and Jane.

Could be relevant.
Free Reg. Marriage. James Rossiter(of Laverton)/ Jane Line(of Orchardly) 31 July 1780. St Mary Orchardleigh. Orchardleigh adjacent to Lullington.

Hi,
Thanks for that. I have the marriage of James Rossiter and Jane Line on 31st July 1780 at Blessed Virgin Mary, Orchardleigh, Somerset but sadly have no other details about them.
Unfortunately about 8 months ago I had a stroke and haven't really done much research on this line and don't have birth dates for either James or Jane, nor do I know if they had children.
I'll have to re-read this again and do a bit more research but am hoping that I might be able to link them up to a family ot line or family in my database.
Sorry I cannot be of much help at present but if you have any further details about this family I'd appreciate any info you have. Hopefully I might be able to connect it to one of the over 50,000 Rossiter individuals in my database.
Stay safe. Have a good day. Best wishes, rcuser

Hi,
That's interesting, I have a Richard Rossiter, who married a Sarah Millet in 1769 at Lullington, Somerset. Wonder if it's the same Sarah Millet?
Wonder if Sarah Millet was married twice?
Best wishes, rcuser

From Free Reg.
Richard Roster/Sarah Millit. 23 March 1761. Lullington.
William Rossiter/ Sarah Millet. 18 Nov 1783. Laverton
Different generations.

Hi Brantor Boy and rcuser
Sorry, I misread my tree, I do have Joseph baptised in 1800, the same year that Sarah died.
I understand that there were many marriages between Rossiters and Millets. I am unsure as to whether any of these were relatives marrying.

Hi recused,
Have just joined rootschat so feeling my way around.
This does seem an old query, so please ignore this if you have the answer, but if not then I have the info from Job to present day. He’s my gr gr gr grandfather, although info do patchy in places

Hi CocoC
Job Rossiter was also my great great great grandfather, who are you descended from? :)

Hi Katy, I am from Jobs son John b1820 I think and in turn from his son Alfred b 08Nov1871. Have been dabbling for years but now have the time to look more closely at the Family tree, so going back on the male line. Have not started on the branches yet, but see from a past entry that you are from George. The one that married Jemima? Also see that you have been doing a lot of work over the years. Am back to Daniel and Mary Purcell I think and believe his father was also a Daniel. Assuming we are all connected to the Rossiter’s of Combe St Nicholas near Chard, but seems a bit of a mystery surrounding that family. Happy to give you any info about my side. Regards CoCoC

Hi CoCoC
I understand that George was born in North Bradley and married Jemima Millett (youngest daughter of Stephen Millett, butcher, and Henrietta Usher).
Job married Christianna (?) Paradise in 1819 in Frome. The family seem to have settled in Rode. Job was born in 1795 and died in 1875.
Previous research, from memory, links them to Evercreech.
Hope this helps.

Hi Katy,
Many thanks for the info. Have seen Rossiter’s in Evercreech but not really looked at them yet. As you say the Rossiter’s seemed fairly settled in Road,
