Oxfordshire / Re: Looking for anyone researching the following surnames Arnold, Sabin, Goodwin
« on: Monday 26 December 16 15:31 GMT (UK)  »
I have an  "F. Sabin" as a witness to a marriage in wardington as follows:-
Marriage - 18 October 1810 • Wardington, Oxfordshire, England
The witnesses to the marriage of Mary Checkley (1792–1812) wed William Peckover (1771-1858) were Thomas Wyatt and F. Sabin.

hope this helps...?

The following name belongs to very respectable looking lady in one of my family trees whose demeanour is quite at odds with her name, which is Miss Fanny Monger.

Alas, these are not ones I have serendipitously found in my lineage...

Canada Lookup Requests Completed / Re: Peckovers in Toronto?-COMPLETED

Glad to hear that you're being circumspect abt the various Josephs;  yours (Bristol mercer & silk merchant) is most likely to have the 1821 death in Reading usually misattributed to another Joseph of the Wisbech branch.  Will be interested to hear of any conclusions you reach, Good luck!

Re bpeckover & Joseph and Emma Peckover of Brislington Bristol Somerset;  I too have got this far but also have a "competing" Joseph Peckover - he is 1766-1821 on another of my Peckover Trees and am now trying to ascertain whether some of the details have been wrongly attributed between these two Josephs!

a couple of possible references
http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/browse/r/h/D150501
and
http://churchdb.gukutils.org.uk/GLS1342.php;  where he possibly may have been buried;

At Son Daniel's Christening 1822:

his death could have been between 1814 and 1824, but prob later as children still being born..!
