seabrook/hazell

[bert]

I am interested in find more about.
John Seabrook Perfumer in Chiswell Street,Nr Finsbury Sq in1796.
He married Hannah Hazell at St John Hackney on 17 July 1816.

He is a bachelor on his marriage to Hannah, so are you sure he is the same John who was a perfumer in 1796? Also, if they are the parents of John Seabrook who was baptised 25 Aug 1819 at the City of London Lying-In Hospital in Finsbury, the baptism record gives the father's occupation as carter (or possibly porter?). Abode is Grays Inn Lane. Or is that a different family?

I don't know whether you already have this, Bert, but there is a Samuel Seabrook who married a Frances Bedford 24 Jun 1855 at St Pancras. Samuel was full age, a bachelor, carpenter, residence Grove Street, father John Seabrook, perfumer. Frances was full age, a widow, residence Grove Street, father Francis Starr, plumber. Witnesses John Cross and M Buckeridge.

There is an 1822 marriage between John Seabrook, bachelor, and Leah Giles, spinster, at St Botolph Without Bishopgate.

This John was a bachelor, what was the status of the one who married Hannah Hazell? (I had been waiting for them to be father and son, but that doesn't seem likely if they were both bachelors!)
