John Carson1

M, d. 7 February 1839, #136
  • John Carson filed a Marriage licence allegation on 5 December 1829 to marry Mary Page.2
  • John Carson married Mary Page, daughter of James Page and Mary Page, on 10 December 1829 at St Leonard's Church, Wallingford, Berkshire.3,4
  • John Carson was working as a Tea dealer in 1830 at Wallingford, Oxon/Berks.5
  • He was working as a Draper in 1835.6
  • A possible death registration for John is recorded in the December 1838 quarter in the Shoreditch Registration District in Middlesex.7
  • He died on 7 February 1839 at Strand on the Green, Chiswick, London, Middlesex; This could be John, but the age here is about 10 years too young (maybe).
    Did he die in a hospital where he wasn't well known? An Attendant is present at the death- does that mean in a hospital or some other institution? Why no medical certification - was that usual in those days?
    This John being described as a Tea dealer and the same description being used in Wallingford for John's occupation in 1830 may be a coincidence, but it seems unlikely. The later Carson connections to London also seem to be in Ealing which is not far from Chiswick.8
  • A possible death registration for John is recorded in the March 1839 quarter in the Brentford Registration District in Middlesex.9
  • He was working as a Shopkeeper.10
  • He died before 1841.11
