William Markwick, London, born in Uckfield
Hello to all the Markwick family, and a special hello to David, our Goon for the Markwicks.
I am descended from the marriage?(not yet found in BMD indexes) of gggrandfather Thomas Butlin MEASURES and Sarah MARKWICK, b abt 1844.
Sarah was the daughter of William MEASURES born a 1819 Uckfield and Sophia (possibly STURT)(married Lewes, SSX 1835). Sarah had siblings William b 1836 Uckfield, Rosa Hannah b 1838 Uckfield, Elizabeth b 1840 Uckfield, Sarah b London 1844, Sophia b London 1846, Robert b 1848 d 1851, Mary Ann b 1853.
Rosa A may have married a MORTON. Sophia may have married a GARDENER, Elizabeth married Theodore John MAYER.
William was variously a shoemaker, a police officer, a watchman, a beadle.His second marriage was to the widowed mother of Thomas Measures, so William was both 3xg grandad and step ggg grandad of mine.
Anyone connected to this line out there?
