I wonder if the info on Enoch Joseph's death is correct. There's an Enoch Joseph who dies in March 1856 in Radford district, with a marriage in Radford - no Joseph included in the name - in 1838. On 1851 his birthplace is noted as St Mary's, Nottingham, c1817

Apologies - Enoch b 1817 is on later censuses and dies in 1888. The death could be his son, who is listed as Joseph on one census, but there's an Enoch Joseph birth registered 1839

I can't see Maria Goddard's baptism on the FH CD --- nor on ancestry

[Annie65115]

Enoch Goddard m Selina Astill in 1838 and according to the newspapers, both parties were from Radford. I think therefore that any Goddard events in Radford can probably be discounted.

However I would like to know where the original Ancestry treemaker got their details for deaths of the two Enochs because I'm yet to be convinced!!

More info about one of these couples - Enoch and Sarah buried a child in Basford (village) in 1794 and baptised another one there in 1795, maybe they moved out of the town centre.

Trying to tie some ends together:

Hannah Goddard died in Newcastle St in 1847; in her obit in the newspaper it said that she was the widow of Enoch, she was 80 years old and also that she had been a member of the Wesleyan church for more than 60 years. This suggests a yob around 1767 for her and would tie with the marriage in 1788.

In 1841 she was in Nottingham St with John Spurr and Maria nee Goddard. Can't atm find Maria's baptism (we could do with some non-con resources for this family!)

In 1851 John and Maria were still in Nottingham St and with them, John's 61 yr old sister in law, Frances Stone. I can't see any marriages of a male Stone to Frances - but Frances's age would fit with the baptism of Frances Goddard, d of Enoch and Hannah.

However as yet we have no resourced evidence of the deaths in May 1834, and we don't know which of the baptised Enochs survived to adulthood.
