    Banns of marriage From 18 Aug 1782 to 8 Sep 1782  St. Bartholomew’s Church, Yealmpton, 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 
    • Shows both were of Yealmpton
    Married Abt 14 Sep 1782  St. Bartholomew’s Church, Yealmpton, 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 an estimate based on dates of reading of banns, and since both were 'of Yealmpton' when the banns were read and the marriage was post-Hardwicke I'm assuming they married in Yealmpton.

      BUT - did they marry at all? - from the docs indexed here it appears there was a maintenance order in 1785 for Benjamin to maintain the illegitimate child of Mary Cornish.

    • The banns book definitely shows the 3rd reading as 21 March, though 25 would seem more likely.

    Married 13 Apr 1810  St. Bartholomew’s Church, Yealmpton, 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 and place from DFHS index of PR on FMP (viewed 30 Oct 2012)
      Easter was late in 1810, 22 April, so Benjamin was marrying in Lent - I don't know how common this was at the time.

      A 5 week old Eleanor was bur on 29 Nov 1823 and a 20 day old Robert on 14 Dec 1819; both may well have been children of this marriage
    Children 5 children
