Married 9 Jun 1776 St. Andrew’s Church, Ipplepen, Devon, England - From BT (image on FamilySearch, viewed 25 Jan 2021)
"June the 4th. John Tozer of Broadhempston, Yeoman was marryed to Elizabeth Gotham (both on widowhood) with Licence"
(the Hardwicke register for Ipplepen for marriages 1754-1813 appears not to have survived)
When John and Elizabeth married I think John had 6 children from his first marriage living, and Elizabeth 4 from hers; all 10 were probably living at home with them. They then went on to have another 6 together, although the final two, twins, both died shortly after birth, both being buried just six days afther they were baptised.
With her six step-children aged between just two and 15 Elizabeth no doubt played a mothering role to the younger children at least.
John was step-father to children aged five to 15, but may not have felt much affection for them. He did not leave a bequest to a single one of them. However, although his will was long it was a practical will, leaving generally large bequests, not small token ones to mark friendships, etc. and he may have been content, therefore, that their mother would take care of his step-children rather than not caring about them. One, Ann, pre-deceased John, dying as a childless widow, while the state of his two step-sons is at the time of writing (May 2022) unknown to me, but his other step-daughter, Elizabeth, definitely survived him.
