    Pupil teacher 
    • Caroline was one of three pupil teachers taken on at the school in the mid-1870s. As the name suggests their role combined that of pupil and teacher. They could be punished like pupils and Caroline was given lines in 1874 for "neglect of order in her class and answering again when spoken to about it".
      A few weeks later all 3 were given 100 lines for "impudent papers during an examination", but while this was then raised to 150 for the other 2 it wasn't for Caroline.
      At the end of the 1874 academic year all was found well by the school inspector apart from some arithmetic, but in 1875 he considered the pupil teachers were not up to the mark.

      One of the others dropped out in 1876; Caroline and the other remaining pupil teacher were required to do better.

      Groom's surname shown as Goodyear

      FreeReg, The Genealogist and KFHS transcribed data all show James' surname as Goodyear!
      Also show groom was a shoemaker, resident: otp (Bower Rd), his father William a fruiterer, Maria's father John a shoe maker, Maria a minor, abode otp (Stone St.). Also show's grooms surname as GOODYEAR
      Witnesses were James Ruck and Stephen Smith.
      Married by banns.

      Despite the large age gap between children Caroline and Maria, the GRO online index has no other children born during that gap or between the marriage and 1844. Of course quite a few children went unregistered in the early days of BMD registration, possibly James and Maria had one or more before 1844 who were born and died between the 1841 or 1851 censuses.
