Peter and Ann both died before 1861. Isaac died in 1902 Camberwell and I don't know what happened to Hannah b. 1815 Rochester or to the other children:

Please see if Isaac and any of his siblings can be found after 1841. Thanks.

Hello Steve,

Thank you very much. That's a lot more than I expected knowing all the variations I've seen with the name including GAUDON and GANDUN.

I have no information to help re Hannah's spouse.

Regards,

Dave

Hello Steve,

Census has Isaac's spouse as Isabel/Isabelle I don't see a match here:

Marriages Mar 1848
Gandon Isaac Shoreditch 2 286
Gaudon Isaac Shoreditch 2 286

Second:

Marriages Mar 1855
GANDON Isaac London 1c 171
WHITEHEAD Isabel London 1c 171

Regards,

Dave

Noticed this one too which looks like his 2nd.

He won't be in 1871 but his spouse Annie or Emma and possible children should be.

GAUDON Zaccheus Lewisham 1d 1077

Hello Steve,

Thanks.

Isaac's first spouse must have died between Mar Q 1848 and Mar Q 1855 and this looks the most likely of Sarah, Mary, Hannah or Mary Ann:

Deaths Mar 1854
Gandon Sarah Shoreditch 1c 126


So that means it was Sarah PHILLIPS.

Marriages Mar 1848
Gandon Isaac Shoreditch 2 286
Gaudon Isaac Shoreditch 2 286
Phillips Sarah Shoreditch 2 286


Regards,

Dave

[DaveHam9]

Hello Steve,

On the assumption the name is GANDON then the likely one of Emma and Annie is this one:

Deaths Sep 1928
Gandon Emma 85 Lewisham 1d 856

so about 20 years old when Emma PYE married Zaccheus in 1863.

Don't know if I'm stretching my luck or not. :D

I can't see Emma GANDON in 1881 or 1911. ???

Regards,

Dave

Hello Steve,

Thanks. I'm not sure but letter carrier looks interesting. :)


I was right. :D Extracted record:

Sarah PHILLIPS Spouse: ISAAC GANDON
Marriage: 9 JAN 1848 Saint John The Baptist, Shoreditch, London, England

Now, am I right with Emma PYE?

Regards,

Dave

[DaveHam9]

Hello Steve,

:2fun: One out of two ain't bad. :2fun:

So it's Annie not Emma. Thanks.

Regards,

Dave

[DaveHam9]

Hello Steve,

Re the John /Jesse one in 1851, I don't have either in my tree. Only other two are Jabez b. 1808 and Hager b. 1813. At first I thought there was only one family in the area but there are too many so it can't be just one.

So Sarah is the odd one out and visiting the other family. Hannah is the only daughter for Peter & Ann I have in my tree.

Regards,

Dave

[DaveHam9]

Hello Steve,


I thought Sarah could be nee. PHILLIPS. :D:D

Yes, then I wonder if John is Peter's brother ??? Do I really want to go down that path ? :rolleyes:
