Bristol Parish Records Lookup - John Churchill (DOB 1815)

[SarahChurchill13]

Ladyhawk No unfortunately. I don't have any concrete information about him, beyond him listed as the father for John. And William is such a common name I've struggled to narrow down which of many he could be. Hopefully now I may make some headway.

[Ladyhawk]

Your William noted as deceased on John's m/c 1848  not that this is going to help posting due to occupation

1851 census Piece:   1570 Folio:141 Page Number:   6
Lambeth London
William Churchill   71 Gardener Dorset ?lock
R 60 wife Sussex Brighton

Ladyhawk Thanks for the 1851 census info - agreed, if my William is dead by John's marriage in 1848 then that can't be him. I will look at the 1841 census info and see if any Williams look promising on there, but it's certainly possible that he never made it into census data depending on when he died. I will also start looking at death records for Williams up to 1848 and see if anything there is helpful.

As profession's can run in families, had a look the 1830 Pigots Directory for Gloucestershire (on line)

and checked for Bristol (Churchill)

There is

CHURCHILL Jno. occupation: Butcher - 126 Exchange Shambles, Bristol
CHURCHILL Samuel & Son - Boot and Shoe Maker - 42 Castle Street, Bristol
CHURCHILL William - Boot and Shoe Maker  - 40 Old Market Street, Bristol

(John seems to be a family )



----

Earlier Street Directories do exist, but not sure if they are on line

[Capetown]

1851 Census Durham, Dalton on Tees

Dalton Station

where John is the Station Master Rail and states he was born in Gloucestershire, Bristol

CHURCHILL

On this census the Enumerator has written John's age as 37 -

Elizabeth aged 32 - Station Master's wife - born London St George
John 3 - born Yorkshire, Beadale
James - 1 born Yorkshire, Dalton

GRO INDEX

CHURCHILL John Hudson - mother's maiden name JARMAN


Hudson would probably be a surname from either the Mother or the father.

Look on Freereg for James CHURCHILL

County: Yorkshire, North Riding
Place : Richmond
Baptism Date: 17 Mar 1850
James

----

Frederick CHURCHILL baptised at the same place - 5 Mar 1854

I don't think this has been mantioned....Frederic Churchill bapt in Bristol  on 26 Aug 1810, son of William Churchill and Margaret.

He appears in Census records in Marylebone as a servant born in Clifton, Bristol.

Looking at the baptism of Frederick at Bristol St James  26 August 1810 - two boys are christened together  with different fathers

}Frederic of William & Margaret CHURCHILL
}John of John & Mary CHURCHILL

---

Just for info :  Mary Ann was a popular name, and one of my Ancestors, the mother christian name was sometimes listed as Mary and on others Ann

Can see Frederic(k) on various census as you say

On the 1851 Census in Marylebone

Frederick CHURCHILL Servant is a Widower - aged 40 occupation: Butler, from Clifton, Somerset


The border between Gloucestershire/Somerset is always confusing


On the 1841 census

Frederic CHURCHILL aged 30 is a Male Servant as the home of

Viscount HOOD

---

? marriage 1841 and 1851

[djm297]

What about the following deduction:

William Pearce Churchill buried 12 Jan 1836 at St James Westminster-Age 65 (born 1771)-abode Warren Street, St Pancras.

William Churchel bapt 7 Oct 1770 at West Pennard Somerset -son of Samuel and Elizabeth Churchel.
Samuel Churchill marries Betty Pearce at West Pennard on 10 Feb 1763-by licence.
William and Margaretta name their first son Samuel.?
