Mark,
A lot of my information has come from the Lytchett Minster and Wareham Dorset OPC site. My George FOOT and Susannah according to the 1851 census where they are living in Lytchett Minster were aged, George 71 and born Redcliffe Dorset, and Susannah aged 58 and born Dorset Lytchett. They commenced baptising children at Lytchett Minster on the 7/2/1813 with their son George, and continued baptising all 10 children at Lytchett Minster, the last being a daughter Henrietta 30/06/1837. In 1the 851 census the 3 children at home were David aged 20 born Dorset Lytchett, Henrietta aged 17 born Dorset Lytchett, and Elizabeth AMES aged 31 born Dorset Lytchett.
When I found on the IGI the marriage of a George FOOT and Susannah MULLETT at Gosport in 1812 (I know I do not know their ages or witnesses or fathers name, as I have not seen the register), I marked this as a probable marriage of my George FOOT and Susannah. With the information on ages and birth places from the 1851 census I found a baptism of a George FOOT in Wareham to a George and Elizabeth FOOT on the 7/1/1780. I then found the baptism of a Susannah MULLETT in Lytchett Minster on the 15/01/1792. The dates of baptism fit with the ages given on the 1851 census. I am aware that the children could have been older then a few months at the time of baptism. I also found at Wareham the marriage of a George FOOT of Redcliffe Farm and Elizabeth DAVIS on the 31/03/1777. Given that George and Susannah FOOT named their 4th child Elizabeth Davis FOOT, I believe that this is the parents of my George FOOT married to Susannah. I am yet to verify who Susannah possibly was.
If anyone has access to the Gosport Parish Registers and is able to look at the entry for marriage of George FOOT and Susannah MULLETT on the 5/3/1812 at the Holy Trinity Church and let me know what additional information is recorded I would appreciate it.
I have noted FOOT and MULLETT connections when I have been undertaking my research. I would be interested to know what informaiton you have on your William FOOT and Susannah MULLETT born about 1790. I have found a William FOOT and Susannah MULLETT marrying at Mappower on the 22/3/1790, witnesses were John FOOT George LEGG. I have not connected this William FOOT with my FOOT family at this stage.
I am at a disctinct disadvantage, in that I really have not looked into the relative distances between a lot of these locations relating to the FOOT family. Something I have to do .
George FOOT and Elizabeth DAVIS married Wareham 31/03/1777. I believe th following children baptised at Wareham could belong to them: following children at Wareham:
George 7/1/1780
Richard 1/1/1784
John 18/4/1786
William Davis 4/1/1792 (born 19/11/1788)
On the 24/7/1811 there is the burial at Wareham of a Elizabeth FOOT wife of George FOOT aged 65, is this possibly the Elizabeth DAVIS who married George FOOT? This would have made birth of Elizabeth about 1746.
On the 21/09/1785 there is the burial of a George FOOT aged 64 at Wareham. This would have made birth of George about 1721. Is this the George FOOT who married Elizabeth DAVIS?
The children of George FOOT and Susannah baptised at Lytchett Minster are:
George 7/2/1813
Susannah 9/10/1814
Eleanor 11/8/1816
Elizabeth Davis 18/4/1819
Richard 2/9/1821
John 2/11/1823
William 14/8/1825
Sarah 27/4/1828
David 27/3/1831
Henrietta 30/6/1837
I have some information on all of the children of George and Susannah FOOT except their daughter Susannah. I am descended from the Richard FOOT and Mary CURE line.
Regards,
Leila
