Baptism | William Channing was baptized on 13 Jan 1809 in Tiverton, Devon. William Channin, son of William & Catherine.1 |
Marriage | He married Ann (-?-).2 |
1841 Census | William and Ann Channing appeared on the 1841 Census of Thorverton, Devon, at Bullen Street. William was a Miller Journeyman and they were both 30 years old. With them were William (6), Elizabeth (3), and Sarah (6), as well as William Channing (55, Ag Lab). They were all born in Devon. Note that the 1841 census records ages rounded down to the nearest 5 years, does not record relationships, and only indicates whether or not the person was born in the county.3 |
Research Note | In the 1841 census, Sarah's age is 6 BUT it is written after William (6) and Elizabeth (3) so should probably be 6 months. |
(Widowed) Death | His wife Ann died in 1842.4 |
Research Note | In the 1851 census, his son William John was with his grandparents (this William's parents) and his daughter Elizabeth was with his brother John and John's wife Ann. His other three children died young. |
Research Note | There is a Wm Channing, age 72, b Tiverton in the 1881 census but I think it is another Wm baptised in 1809.5 |
