				Please any info on Mark Pike and fam. He was born in Gt Weeks or very close in 1870's.
 Thanks
 Lynnc
- 
				Cannot find any mention of a town or parish called Gt. Weeks?!
 
 
 The 1881 census has a Mark Pike, born 1865 in Chagford.
 Or Mark Pike born 1880 in Bow (aka Nymnet Tracey), son of Samuel & Ellen.
 
 Would either of these fit?
- 
				there is no birth regd in devon in the 1870's of a mark pike
 these are the only ones regd in that county 1860-1890
 mark pike 1860 chard reg dist
 mark pike 1864 okehampton reg dist
 mark pike 1880 crediton reg dist
 mark pike 1884 st.thomas reg dist

				Thanks for your help I think it looks like Mark Pike born in Chagford I'll do more work on that

				Perhaps if you explained from where you found the information you do have, we can take it further?

				Hi I found most of the information from family. We had the sons names Louis Rupert and Harold Andrews Pike, they were born in the 1890's. From this we found them on the census and birth cert etc. and discovered the parents names. Also again family story said they were from Devon.  I would like to know his parents and see if I can go back further. I wondered if Harold Andrews was his mother's maiden name but no proof yet.
 Thanks

				i take it the sons are the ones who are living with their mother laura annie pike in 1901 in hammersmith

				in 1901 mark is in kensington 
 in service.
 occupation is ; butler(domestic)
 same applies in 1891
 wonder why he put musician down on his childrens baptisms instead of butler?
- 
				yeah we wondered that, she had a lodger who was a musician?? Also they never seem to live together until they were old.
