Pallots Marriage and Baptism Look-up Please

[suffolk*sue]

The above baptism was from dockland ancestors collection on findmypast, so I would imagine the transcriptions are accurate.

I've just read all the messages and I think I have some additional information from my family tree.

I have a Thomas Meek, born 29 Sept 1782 in York, Yorkshire, who married Frances Henderson (b. circa 1782 London) in London .  Thomas Meek was a tailor as per the 1841 & 1851 England census.

I am aware of 2 children from Thomas & Frances:

Sarah Ann Rayson Meek (my relative) b. about 1819 Middle St Georges, London
Frances Meek (female) b. about 1821 London.

It appears that John Andrew Meek could be an older brother although the location in London doesn't seem quite right? 

Sarah Ann Rayson Meek married Alexander Body in June 1839 in St Georges London, and emigrated to Melbourne Australia in 1857.

Since my last post in May 2010, I have found another brother of my relative Sarah Ann Meek. 

John Meek was born 11 April 1811 in London and christened 11 Oct 1812 in Stepney (I've assumed that he is the same person to one listed below).  He died on 4 March 1870 in Collingwood, Melbourne, 60 years old.  He emigrated to Australia about 1856 possibly with his wife Ellen and their 2 eldest surviving children at that time, being Ellen and Richard.  There next 2 children Fanny and Alfred emigrated together later in 1864.  John Meek was a baker. 

It might be that John's father was in fact a sailor, as it is unclear on the death certificate if it is tailor or sailor.  Hope this makes sense.

I think the John Meek I am related to is not the same John Meek referred to by Valda.

Hi Hirdy,

Sorry I have only just found your posts.  This will be helpful because it will help to eliminate at least this John Meek from my John Meek.  Still searching for mine.  Thank you for your post.  Sorry to take so long to reply.

Excuse all my posts before this one regarding the parentage of John Andrew Meek and his address.  The father of John Andrew Meek is William Meek and his mother's name is Ann.  There address in 1827 was 34 Cock Lane, Snow Hill.  In 1841 & 1851 William & Ann Meek are living at 3 Green Arbour Court, St Sephulchre, Middlesex.  Father William Meek was at the Battle of Waterloo.
