A Dead End? John Duvall

[paulwatford67]

Hello
Hope someone may be able to help with a dead end.

I cannot find birth or parent details of John Duvall born c.1773
He married Martha Bowell in 1797 in Hanover Sq. London and had six children.
John died Aug. 22 1834 in Birchington Kent.

He spent most of his life in Middlesex but died in Kent.

Any ideas please

Thank You
Paul

Hi Paul

Have you viewed the original marriage register of his marriage or an online transcription? This should name the witnesses and his parish of residence.

hi Ben

John was living around Bedford St, near The Strand London at his time of marriage, I'm just unable to find any birth records for him.

i will look for the original marriage register, only seen a bad photocopy, it may help

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give it a go

Hi

What was John's occupation? Was he a victualler at the time of his death?

hi Valda

Yes John was a Victualler, he was running the Wheatsheaf in Fulham,
I've found out quite a bit about his life, its just his birth thats a mystery

Hi

So presumably you have a copy of his Prerogative Court of Canterbury will? Just a long shot in case he mentioned anyone outside of his 'nuclear' family?

Will of John Duvall, Victualler of Fulham , Middlesex 12 September 1834 PROB 11/1836
