Isaac SARJEANT 1823-1908

[Eyesee]

Isaac SARJEANT was born c1823 in Rangeworthy, Gloucestershire, 3rd son of William SARJEANT and Sarah WILLIAMS The surname is not always spelt that way so I have found. William died between 1833 and 1841 probably in Machen, Monmouth, as that is where the family was in 1841, and 1851. By 1861 Isaac was in New Zealand and stayed there for the rest of his life.

Trying to find his baptism/birth date as well as for the rest of his siblings. Have found most of them in the census so do not need any census info.

Those I have are
Emma Williams SARJEANT baptised 2 Jan 1811 aged 2 at Yate, Gloucestershire - can't find any other record of her
Louisa SARJEANT bapt 9 Jan 1811 at Yate, Gloucester - m1 John PRUJEAN 1842, m2 William LIBERT 1854 - can't find her death
Edward SARJEANT born c1814 Yate, Gloucestershire
Thomas SARJEANT born c 1821 Rangeworthy, Gloucestershire
Isaac SARJEANT born c1823 Rangeworthy, Gloucestershire - was in NZ by 1861
Henry SARJEANT born 19 Nov 1829 Rangeworthy, Gloucestershire - also came to NZ by 1861
Elizabeth SARJEANT bapt 3 Mar 1833, Machen, Monmouth.

It is possible there were others with the gap between Isaac and Henry.

According to 1851 Sarah the mother was born in Bitton c1787.

Thanks Trish. Yes I did have the census info, but not the death. That probably is her as most of the other bdm registrations seem to be in that district.

The information you want is available on the GFHS CD of baptisms 1813 to 1837.

You can find details at the GFHS site using Google.

Have not looked up the census yet, but if Joseph was a painter and lithographer they arrived in Melbourne, Australia in 1857, Mr, Mrs and three Misses.

EDIT, Did you notice on 1841 Wales census with Sarah and children, that on same page is a James Sargeant aged 45 and wife Margaret. James is not born in county. Possible brother of William?

Found the Arestis is Melbourne.

See here - http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,398651.0.html

Henry arrived in Melbourne June 1859 and placed an advert in the Argus newspaper late June and early July looking for his sister Mrs J Aresti.

Sadly the three daughters all died in 1860 in Melbourne, and Emma also there in 1865. Joseph returned to London in 1866. Can't find him in 1871 as yet, but found a death for a Joseph ARESTE in 1878 aged 70, which seems to fit.
