Feltham, Middlesex

[Gilli48]

Hi, I am looking for help with my Juett, Jewett, Jewit/t, family. 

My 3xGreat Grandfather John Gooud was married to Eliza Juett in January 1831 in St George Hanover Square, Westminster. 
Now, as I indicated above there are quite a few variations on her surname.  She, or the Vicar!, seemed to prefer Juett, however, the Eliza Jewett that I have found seems to be the nearest to her dates giving a Baptism date of 11 October 1807 in Feltham, Middlesex.  Going by the censuses of 1841 and 1851 her estimated date of birth is 1806 so this could fit.  There is a Joseph Juett b.1771 who appears in the 1841 census and then later the same year marries his housekeeper (!) Elizabeth Johns.  However, I'm not sure whether this fits.  He was a 70 year old Widower and she a 50 year old spinster.  Eliza could be his child by his first wife but I can't find any records under any permutation of the name.

I would grateful for any help here as I am trying to further my Maternal line and at present is has hit a brick wall with her.

Many thanks

Hi

This could be the burial of his first wife,

ELIZA JEWITT of Feltham buried 9 February 1840 aged 60 years.

For anyone else looking, here are the baptisms I can find

Eliza Jewett Bap.   11 Oct 1807 (born: 6 Apr. 1807)  St Dunstan with St Catherine, Feltham, parents: Joseph and Elizabeth (image actually looks more like JEWITT)

Elizabeth bap. 13 May 1810 (born: 24 April 1810) St Dunstans with ST Catherine Feltham, parents : Joseph and Eliza (surname in image ~ JEWITT)

Susan bap. 14 Jun 1812 ( born: 10 Apr. 1811) Same Church. Parents: Joseph and Elizabeth (surname entered as JEWITT)

Eleanor JEWIT bap. 26 April 1818. Parents Joseph and Eliza of Feltham, he a labourer.

Thanks for that, however, you have shown the problem I have.  Some baptisms show parents as Joseph & Eliza and some are Joseph & Elizabeth.  I realize that Eliza could be a family name for Elizabeth but I'm not sure. 

Joseph (or one Joseph) married Elizabeth much later.  Could this be a case of having the children first and getting married later?  I would've thought that the Vicar would have not been too happy to go along with this.

Thanks anyway.  If you come up with anything else I would be grateful.

Hi
Other possible children
Mary Jewett 24.2.1805 Feltham
And an online tree has a John  Jewit bapt 5.12. 1802 Hanworth and buried Feltham 1804.
Perhaps Eliza came form Hanworth and has gone back to her mother's to have her first child.

Joseph's marriage says his father was George and there are several entries for a George Jewitt of Feltham on the London lives website in the 1780's.He's  a witness in a  trial at the Old Bailey.

George and Sarah Jewett have Charles 16.01.1774,Zachariah 1.2.1778 and Frances 3.9.1780 baptised at Feltham.Looking at the individual records there seems to be a gap between 1753 and 1771 which would leave Joseph's baptism missing.
Another place to try would be to go through Hanworth as well page by page perhaps on A*
Will carry on looking

Hi Ciderdrinker,
Thanks for your post.  Sorry I didn't catch it earlier.  I am slowly following up all the helpful hints received.

Any help appreciated regarding Feltham births for either Eliza Juett or Joseph Juett her father.

Hi

If reply #2 isn't helpful, can you give us an idea of the dates?

Hi,  all answers received are helpful.  However, there are a few sticking points that I worry about!
1.  The various Baptisms for children of Joseph have sometimes Elizabeth and sometimes Eliza as mother - I wonder whether there is any way of knowing that these are the same couple?

2.   No marriage for an earlier wife.  Only a later marriage to Elizabeth Johns, no father for her!

3.   I followed earlier leads for George only to discover that the George that I had for Joseph's father was born in 1789 in Hanwell and Joseph's dob is 1770 - it could be a brother but without a Baptism for Joseph and George there is no way of knowing whether they share the same parents.
Help!
