1811 - Marriage

---

23 Sept 1811
Thomas Lampfield,
- OTP,
- bachelor,
Lucy Whitebread
- of the same parish,
- spinster,
[]
Both sign with mark
witness - Jane Whitebread.
[]
Jane could be younger sister born 1798, therefore 13yo at this time.
[]
Marriage record literally adjacent on same page
to marriage of Robert Kew and Mary Whitebread
(14th March)

1841 - misread in Ancestry as Charles Waddison

Easton Street, Easton, Pewsey, Wiltshire near Hannian Lane (appears to be on corner)
[]
William Whitbread 84 [1757 or earlier] Ag Lab
Mary Whitbread 77 [1764 or earlier]
[]
Lucy Smith 49 [1791 or earlier] Visitor
Charles Waddam (sic) 11 [1829] ditto
[]
Jane Lanfian [sp?] 10 ditto
James Hedges 1 [1839] visitor
[]
all born in county
[]
Charles's mother = Elizabeth Whitebread (maiden name), thought to be born 1809 Easton Royal
Elizabeth's father = James Whitebread (1788-1848), born Easton Royal, died Pewsey.
James's father = John Whitebread (1751-1831), born Shelbourne, died Pewsey.
John's brother = William Whitebread (1757-1846), born Pewsey, died Easton Royal.
William's wife = Mary Kimber (maiden name) (1763-1857), born & died Easton Royal.
[]
Therefore Charles 'Waddam' (Woodham) was with his great grandfather's brother & wife!
[]
The ages match the 1841 census data.
Amazingly, despite the number of generations crossed, these people were all alive at the same time.
Charles was 12 years old, and the Whit(e)breads were nearly 90.
[]
There are two others listed just below these and I can't quite work out They also have "visitor" crossed out.

• Jane LANFEAR?, 18, not born in county
• James HEDGES or HEDGER, 1, not born in county

[]
Lucy SMITH may have been the married daughter of William and Mary WHIT(E)BREAD.
[]
The child James HEDGES is with Thomas and Lucy SMITH in 1851
and Lucy is shown as born Easton so it would seem that James HEDGES is their grandson.

neighbours in 1841

There is a network of the WHIT(E)BREAD family in this village in 1841.
[]
The household listed next to William and Mary WHITBREAD is

• William WHITBREAD, 30 ag lab
• Elizabeth WHITBREAD, 50

[]
and next to them is

• William WAIT, 60, ag lab with his wife
• Sarah, 50 and
• James 20,
• Jane 15, and
• Thomas 12.

This Sarah WAIT was nee WHITBREAD
[]
Further on there is

• Robert KEW 67 ag lab,
• wife Mary 65,
• Mary 19,
• William 14. ***

This Mary KEW was nee WHITBREAD
(As an aside - it's unlikely that the boy William aged 14 is the child of Mary 65 given Mary's age,
so, possibly, another case of children living with relatives other than their parents)
[]
William Whitbread living in house next door. age 30 [1810 or before]. ag lab.
[]
[]
My impression is that Thomas Smith and Thomas Lampfield are the same person,
that the man lied about his name for some reason at the time he married Lucy.
I think the names Lanfear and Lampfield are distinct and the appearances here are coincidental.
There is no reason to think that Charles Wadham is linked to Lucy and there is no benefit from presuming it.

No sign of Lucy Smith after that, not even death record.
