For John Savell & Rebecca Peacock

John Savile | England, Essex, Parish Registers, 1538-1997 | Marriage 4 November 1805 | Spouses Rebecca Peacock

FamilySearch index entry, fields as labelled; the spelling here is SAVILE. This is what gives Rebecca a maiden surname. PEACOCK has been carried as family tradition on the compiled trees without a source; it is now record-attested. The parish is not displayed on the index page and is on the record's Document Information panel, unread — worth opening, since it would name the parish the couple were married in and probably where Rebecca came from. Nine years and one month before Benjamin's birth, and consistent with a first child in 1806 and Elizabeth and Benjamin later.
