    Died 22 May 1877  (probably), Dartmouth, Devon, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • 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)

    • 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 1884 
    £50 
    • 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.
