  • Notes 
    • There was a second John having children in Bishop's Waltham at about the same time: that was the husband of Ann. That other John was on the 1841 and '51 censuses in Droxford, which tell us he was born in Wiltshire in about 1775, and so could not have been the 66-year-old man buried in Bishop's Waltham in 1834. That burial matches a baptism in Droxford in 1767, son of Jesse and Mary. Two of their later children were baptised in Bishop's Waltham, and that is where Jesse was probably buried, so it is reasonable his son lived there. The John buried in 1834 is very probably this John as Sarah was listed as widowed on the census.
