Hezekiah Carrall
« on: Thursday 27 June 19 22:35 BST (UK) »
Hezekiah Carrall's gravestone in Hull records that he died on 12 Feb 1901.  We can confirm that from our Charterhouse register which, oddly, has him down on entry as Henry and this seems only to have been corrected when he died.  The grave also houses Ester Carrall who died in childbirth on 16 May 1863 aged 32, and her husband Henry who, like Hezekiah, was a toy dealer, died in 1880 aged 50.  This Henry was presumably Hezekiah's brother.  The informant of the death was Clara Carrall.  We have no idea who she was.  I can't find a marriage for Hezekiah.
Now it gets odd.  Hezekiah's baptism is recorded twice, in Hull, on 4 April 1828 - twice; once as Hezekiah and once as Henry.  Same date, same parents.  Were there twins, or did the vicar record it twice because he wasn't sure.
And that's it.  I can't find him under either name on censuses (I can only use FS).  He entered the Charterhouse in 1895 so he should be on earlier censuses.  His gravestone says he was a toy dealer in Queen St, Hull.  Any help would be appreciated,

1891 shows a Henry Carnell 62 b Methley with a daughter Clara aged 21.  Have you already ruled them out?  That Henry was a wheelwright not a toy dealer

Your opening post says “same parents” but no names given.  Who were his parents?
