Help! - Where is Aaron Breed of Braintree???

[goldenbreed]

Hi,

I have been trying to locate the baptism/birth and marriage information of Aaron Breed for years now without success  . According to the early census records, he was born in Braintree in c1795 and married Mary Unknown (b. c1794, Bocking) somewhere between 1813 and 1817, possibly in Braintree/Bocking. He became a baker and lived in Braintree until his death in 1856.

Can anyone please help me out with this ancestor?

Thank you for any help you might be able to give.

Regards,

Andrew.

Little doubt this is your family.
Four children under 10 and parents would be age 26 based on 1851 census.

Baptised Braintree, Parents Aaron and Mary BREED.
Father is Baker:

1817, Feb 21, Mary Ann
1819, Jun 11, Sarah Ann
1823, Mar 27, Joseph
1826, Mar 10, Joseph Aaron
1828, Jun 13, William
1830, Mar 19, Aaron George
1832, May 4, Sarah Ann

and

1837 Jun 23
Thomas, s. of Mary & Aaron Breed, Braintree, Baker    b. May 30 1837

So there are two boys not baptised at Braintree.


Baptised Braintree, Parents Aron and Mary BREED.
Father is Bricklayer:

1830, Jun 4, Sarah Wheeler, born 1793
1830, Jun 4, Ann, born 1791

Pallot's Marriage Index:

1810 Breed, Sarah Wheeler = Norton, Geo

1813 Breed, Aaron = Usher, Mary

both at Christchurch, Newgate, London



Speculation:

Aaron & Mary Breed m. 1778 but did not baptise their children after 1780.

Sarah Wheeler Breed went to London to marry, age 17.

Her brother Aaron did the same a few years later, also age 17.

Many thanks again for the information CP, particularly your speculative thoughts.

Do you know if Mary Usher was baptised in Braintree? According to the early census records she was born in Braintree c1794.

Thanks again for your help.

Andrew.
