Joice Jolliffe (or Jollief), wife of Charles Packer, m. 04 July 1731, Horfield
« on: Thursday 03 July 25 22:37 BST (UK) »
I'm hoping to learn more about Joice Jolliffe, the wife of Charles Packer, who were married 04 July 1731, in Horfield, Gloucester.  Any details from her marriage or death that might identify her parents or birthplace would be appreciated.

Notes:
1. There are some who allege her full name was Margaret Joyce Jolliffe (or Jollief).
2. Some assert she died in 1756, but I've seen no solid evidence.

A possibility - there is a Joyce baptised on 1 June 1710 at St Thomas, Bristol, daughter of John JOLLIFE. And, another on 5 May 1712. The first was buried 24 March 1711.

Yes, that's definitely possible. Can I ask where you're seeing these records? I'm unable to find them on FindMyPast or Family Search. Thank you.

The original parish records are on Ancestry.

You may have already seen, but in case you haven't seen the original images, when I was looking earlier, I noticed that when a child of Charles PACKER was baptised in Bristol, it says that he was a butcher.

Modified to add:
Yes, just checked - 12 Jan 1734 Elizabeth, dau of Charles PACKER, butcher at St Thomas, Bristol.

Thank you for all of this. So yes I see that 1702 marriage of John Jolliffe to Mary Wakeley, and the baptism of Elizabeth Packer in 1734. But for some reason I'm unable to find those JOLLIFFE baptisms in 1710 and 1711 on Ancestry (nor any of the other sites I use). Nor do I see the marriage banns. Very strange.
