  • Name James PEPPERELL 
    Relationshipwith Teresa Ann GOATHAM
    Born Abt 1769 
    • From age in burial register. Being a round figure (80) may indicate the informant wasn't sure and was giving an approximate age.
      No sign of a James Pepperell, Pipperell etc. in FMP index (1769 +/- 5 years) or on SouthHams website, anytime close to 1769). Maybe non-conformist baptism OR gap in a register OR not in a PR OR born with a different name?

      Probably the son of George  and Elizabeth:
      (1) Note that James after giving his own name to a son named one George;
      (2) George and Elizabeth's children were baptised in a non-conformist chapel, and James also had some of his baptised non-conformist
      (3) Gap between George and Elizabeth's marriage and first known children - almost certainly missing 2 or more there.

    • From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 17 Nov 2015)
      "George Pepperel of the Parish of Stokenham
      Batchelor and Elizabeth Mitchel of the
      Parish of Stokenham Spinster
      Married in this Church by Banns
      this Eighth Day of August in the Year One Thousand Seven Hundred

      This Marriage was } George Pepprell
      solemnized between Us } Elizabeth Michel
      In the } John Pepprell
      Presence of } Richard Michelmore"

      As well as the children shown I think it probable that a James born c. 1869 was a son of this couple.

    • From Loddiswell PR entry (image on DFHS website, members' section)
      Shows James was a mariner of Stokenham, Elizabeth of Buckland Tout Saints. Shows 'Married in this Chapel' just after the reference to Elizabeth being of Buckland Tout Saints, whilst most entries showed 'in this Church'. It is clear from the baptism register that events at Buckland at this time were recorded in Loddiswell PRs, Buckland Tout Saints being a chapelry in Loddiswell Parish at this time.
      The witnesses were shown as Robert Gardner and Wm Southwood. (Most marriages at this time were witnessed by Robert Popplestone who was probably the parish clerk, so Robert Gardner and William Southwood were probably both close friends or family)

      Although there had been a number of Pepperell events in Dartmouth in earlier centuries, there had been none in the town for some time when a Roger married in 1771, and he did not appear to have a son James baptised in Dartmouth who could be this James.
