• Name	John PIKE
  Relationship	with Teresa Ann GOATHAM
  Born	Abt 1817	Stokenham, Devon, England
  Gender	Male
  Occupation	Cordwainer
  	From 1851 to 1871	Lower Street, Dartmouth, Devon, England
  	In 1851 and 1871 census. 1871 census indicates he was a master shoemaker, employing 1 man
  Died	22 May 1877	(probably), Dartmouth, Devon, England
  	Date from Probate index. Death certificate shows his cousin Thomas Issell registered the death. I think this would have been the Thomas Issell born 1845 - son of John's first cousin Robert. (Thomas was also a cordwainer living in Lower Street in Dartmouth - he may have been the person John was shown as employing at the time of the 1871 census)
  Probate	National probate calendar entry
  	1 Mar 1878	Exeter, Devon, England
  	Pike John. 1 March. The Will of John Pike late of Dartmouth in the County of Devon Shoemaker who died 22 May 1877 at Dartmouth was proved at Exeter by Susan Jane Pike of Dartmouth Widow the Relict the sole Executrix. Personal Estate under £100.
  Bequest	£50
  	1884
  	When his uncle Thomas Efford Issell wrote his will in 1870 he left £50 to John, but only after his (TEI's) wife's death. This didn't occur until 1884, after John had died, so it would have been his beneficiaries who received the money, according to the terms of his own will.
  Buried	St. Petrox Church, Dartmouth, Devon, England
  	The Dartmouth Archives website shows burial in row - section PRSQ (sketch plan of the churchyard)
  Notes	In Lower St, Dartmouth with sister Susan in 1851; same road with his wife and children 1871
