Research Notes
- Possible marriage record based on previous info held in profile "New Zealand, Civil Records Indexes, 1800-1966," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:Q24V-MN8R : 4 October 2016), John Nicholas Pope and Mary Anne Merrick, 1871; citing Marriage, New Zealand, registration number 1871/8268, Archives of New Zealand, Wellington.
The 1841 census has a sibling Roger - his birth gives mother's maiden name as Wilson; POPE, ROGER MMN: WILSON GRO Reference: 1840 D Quarter in OF THE KINGSBRIDGE UNION Volume 09 Page 344
This is supported by John's birth record :POPE, JOHN NICHOLAS MMN:WILSON GRO Reference: 1838 J Quarter in TOTNES UNION DEVON Volume 09 Page 469
Other possible siblings - but common name...
- POPE, WALTER WILSON GRO Reference: 1842 M Quarter in THORNBURY UNION Volume 11 Page 483
Quite likely a different couple ...? below - all in same location
- POPE, JAMES JOSIAH WILSON GRO Reference: 1849 S Quarter in PORTSEA ISLAND UNION Volume 07 Page 123
- POPE, THOMAS HENRY WILSON GRO Reference: 1853 S Quarter in PORTSEA ISLAND UNION Volume 02B Page 333
- POPE, WILLIAM JOHN WILSON GRO Reference: 1852 J Quarter in PORTSEA ISLAND UNION Volume 02B Page 348
- POPE, CAROLINE ELIZABETH WILSON GRO Reference: 1856 D Quarter in PORTSEA ISLAND Volume 02B Page 336
- Next birth on GRO is not until 1861 in St Giles. John born 1837, unlikely to be same mother
