Could someone kindly look up Mary Trott of Axminster in the 1841 & 1851 censuses please.
Thanks

Hi

There are a lot of Mary Trotts in both censuses in Devon, but I can't see any born Axminster. Have you got anymore details re dates etc?

Hopefully she was born Mary Seward in or around Kilmington c1809
Thanks

Marriages for Joel Trott at that time in that area (how many can there be!) show that he married a Charlotte Spiller in 1831 in Kilmington but Family Search shows baptisms for Joel and Mary Trott's children:

Mary 1832 Stockland
James 1833 Kilmington
Sarah 1835 Dalwood

If this isn't your Mary Trott, I hope you find your woman somewhere!

Hmmm Confusing!!

Funny that in the will that you sent me a copy of, Edward Seward left £5 each to his two grandsons... Robert & Thomas Spiller.  Also in the 1851 census there is a Robert Spiller at one of the 2 leased farms with Edward's sons George & William.

Rum do's as they say in Norfolk!

[tioman]

and a Charlotte Seward married an Abraham Spiller in Kilmington on 03 Nov 1828.... I'm getting very confused now!

[tioman]

A little less confused now...

Baptism records show

Thomas Spiller christened Stockland 01/11/1829
Robert Spiller christened  Stockland 19/06/1831
Father Abraham Spiller mother Charlotte Spiller nee Seward......

Charlotte Spiller Burial Kilmington 25/03/1836...

That makes sense... theyare the two grandsons of Edward Seward...

[Darwin]

Yes that makes sense and I found the baptism of Edward's daughter Charlotte Seward on Family Search - 1808 Yarcombe
