About William Jecks

William was born on the 26 October 1789 in Stepney, which is north of the River Thames, east of the City of London. Some 35 years later he is found living with his wife Elizabeth at Sussex Place on the Old Kent Road in Camberwell, a parish south of the Thames between Walworth and Deptford. William and Elizabeth Berry obtained a marriage license from the Marriage License Faculty Office on the 20th October, 1824 and were married 25 December 1824 at St Mary Islington, which is a part of London, north of both the Thames and the City of London.

William and his wife initially lived south of the Thames and City. The Camberwell, Southwark, Register of Christenings reveals:

1826 Eliza Ann born 11 May 1826, of William & Elizabeth Jecks Sussex Place Kent Rd Gentleman, June 11

1827 William John born 20 Sept 1827, of William & Elizabeth Jecks Sussex Place Old Kent Road Gentleman, October 21

1830 George Frederick of William & Elizabeth Jecks, Old Kent Road Gent April 21

William Jecks was another of the London Jecks who worked as a banker. By 1841 the family is living in Islington in North London. By 1851 his two sons were also bankers. Nine years after that census, only a few months before the 186l census, William died at his home in Islington.
