Thanks for this info folks - I have encountered this druggist chap before and he has confused things because the rest of the family weren't there!

Whoooo! A Parris family eh....just what I was hoping for....but as next door neighbours??? Thanks Mum44 - great find

Thank you so much for all your hard work Tazzie.

Do you know whether James was living next door to the Parris family in 1841 as well? I was thinking that Emily may have been a Parris before her marriage!

And this one!!!!



Marriages Sep 1839 
 
Du Chemin  Emma    Exeter  10 103   
Goodridge  William Newton     Exeter  10 103   
Parris  Sophia Sarah     Exeter  10 103   
Pates  William     Exeter  10 103   
Thomas  Elizabeth     Exeter  10 103   
WHEATON  William     Exeter  10 103   

So, just to recap...
 it looks as if Sara Sophia Parris married William Newton Goodridge in 1839, with whom she had Margaret, Thomas, William and Kate. William Newton Goodridge must have died between 1849/1850, because in 1851  Sarah was a widow and Kate was only 1yr old.

She and James Sellers married in 1854 and lived next to her parents (the Parris family).
They had Samuel K (c.1855), Walter (19/11/1855)
John Parris Sellers (1861) and Amy E (c.1859)

I have plotted all the info so far and it's looking good, but have I missed anyone out? 

What happened to Samuel? Perhaps he died.(sorry, thinking aloud now:-[)

Wiliam Newton Goodridge died Q2. 1850 Exeter

Extracted baptism on the IGI for Sarah Sophia Parris 20 March 1818, and sister Elizabeth 1816, both at Colyton.

Maybe the Elizabeth who married Samuel?  Or Thomas Goodridge ?

Parents John and Elizabeth;

John Parris married Elizabeth How : 7 Nov 1815 Colyton  - extracted record.
