From his Will it appears that he had three illegitimate children, Sarah, Susannah and Isaac, (born between 1799 and 1803), with a lady named Susannah Pelton. He also had three legitimate daughters, Sarah, Mary, and Elizabeth, (born between 1784 and 1789), with wife, Sarah Cartwright. I can't trace a DOD for wife, Sarah. I wonder if she died before he started his affair or if she left because of it??

... he had three illegitimate children, Sarah, Susannah and Isaac, (born between 1799 and 1803), with a lady named Susannah Pelton.

Those 3 illegitimate children were all baptised on the same day
-   28 Dec 1813 in Wanstead Essex.

Whereas the children of Isaac and Sarah were baptised at the time of their births in Shoreditch Middlesex.

Yes, I saw that. I think wife, Sarah, probably died between the birth of her last child in 1789 and the birth of Isaac's first illegitimate child in 1799 but then why didn't he ever marry her? Perhaps Susannah Pelton was also married. I can't find out a great deal about her via Ancestry.

Hi, yes, thanks for that. Seems that he never married their mother.
