Frances Sophia Guillebaud

Marriage record from January 1774 states she was upwards of twenty one years of age and from St Olave, Southwark, Surrey. Probably died 1834 Beckenham, Kent, giving birth year of 1754 — Kent Burials.

Her daughter’s baptism shows her father to have been Delabere, and his will kindly suppplied to me by a descendant shows the Delabere in question was the Rev Delabere Pritchett subchanter of St David’s Cathedral in Pembrokeshire.

Richard Lea paid £200 for marriage to Mary Pritchett in 1774, record shows he was “upwards” of 26 years.

Described as her brother-in-law by Hannah Vertue’s will. Peter’s wife may well have been Ann Vertue, who was buried in Bunhill Fields 1813 age 71.

Birth on FamilySearch

Presume Mary Ann died in childhood as there is record of her sister Mary Ann born in 1811 - wrong as found in 1871 census with husband William Baynton. So some confusion here.

“The land and patronage in the village of Thurgarton was in the hands of Trinity College Cambridge and they instructed a new house be built for the new vicar, Reverend Henry Lea Guillebaud. The plan of the house, originally called ‘The Manor House’ is still kept in the Nottinghamshire Archives and shows that not much has changed since it was first built.

“The 1851 census shows that Reverend Guillebaud was first living in the house as a batchelor with three live-in servants; a groom, housekeeper and a housemaid. He later went on to marry Jemima and had five children while continuing as the vicar of Thurgarton for 20 years, until 1872.”

He married in his late 30s and he and wife Jemima raised five children at Thurgarton. He left the village in 1872 shortly after establishing the Church of England village school.”
