Research Notes
- The only other Richard Partridge born in East Portlemouth was baptised 23rd May 1790 which is very late for a wedding in 1794!
- There is another Richard Partridge born in East Allington to John and Susanna in 1774, living in Aveton Gifford and married to a Sarah in 1851 Census[13], but Sarah married to our Richard is a widow by then.
- The burial record is for someone of the correct age.
- He married Sarah, whose maiden name must be Cowle because in 1851 Census[14] Elizabeth Lapthorn, head of family, has mother Sarah Partridge (widow), making her maiden name Partridge, plus an uncle John Cowle, who can't be from father's side.
- In his marriage to Sarah he is described as Richard Partridge junr which implies he is the son of a Richard Partridge, or at least the most junior in the area. He is also a widower.
- In the 1861 Census at Holset [15] his son, also a Richard born around 1799 describes Sarah as his step mother. From that Richard's baptism we find his mother was Ann.
- No other Partridges born to a Richard and Ann Partridge in East Allington or East Portlemouth, or anywhere else in East Hams in available records,
- Seems to be a gap in Portlemouth baptism records 1804 to 1812, so may have missed some children.
