Looking for children of
Ann Pope
BIRTH abt 1811 Coldridge, Devon, U.K Parents Thomas Pope and Grace Handcock
DEATH 02 AUG 1879 4 Phene St, Chelsea, London, England
John Smale
BIRTH Abt. 1803 Littlehampton, Devon, England
DEATH 21 JAN 1879 4 Phene St, Chelsea, London, England Parents believed to be John Smale and Francis Unknown. Some suggest wife was Ann and there is a birth 16 Jan 1805 and baptism 17 Feb 1805 recorded in Exeter in England & Wales, Non-Conformist and Non-Parochial Registers, 1567-1936
They married 27 Dec 1832 Exeter All Hallows Goldsmith St Devon
A number of researchers had pointed to several children but the birth dates for one is prior to marriage and documents are not provided by others. The suggested children are
John Parker Smale 1830–1891 Birth seems wrong
Betsey Smale 1833– Seems to fit based on 1841 Census
John Penwarden Smale 1834–1897 Further research finds a John Smale and spouse Penwarden which would make sense and eliminate this child
William Smale 1835–1898 Seems to fit from 1841 Census Potential baptism 11 Jan 1835
James Smale 1836–1897 Possible from 1851 Census Birth suggested as 20 Sep 1836
Mary Ann Smale 1838–1912 Birth suggested as 10 Jul 1838 and this child fits my tree as I have images of her in personal photos and another researcher has same image both with name written on back
Lucy Smale 1840– Seems to fit from 1841 Census
Fanny Smale 1841–1905 Married a mariner Nicholas Moalle in China according to some .
Lots of "hints" but documents at my end are lacking.
I have more unconfirmed details on marriages for some of above but simply hypothetical for the most part.
