That looks possible, Merry.
John's wood engraver son, Thomas, is recorded as being married in the 1861 census. John isn't with Thomas and his wife. I reckon Thomas's wife, Elizabeth, from Tring, the niece in the 1851 censes, are the same person.

In 1881, John Seabrook is still living with Thomas and Elizabeth. This time recorded as a widower, age 86.

I a now envisaging John and Martha having son John in 1794 in Tring. Both of them perfumers.
John jr comes to London and marries Hannah Hazell. They split up and she moves away (Liverpool??!) he remarries to Leah and says he is a bachelor as his first wife is still alive.......... Maybe I should shut up?!!

The 1871 census describes John Seabrook as being blind from what looks like an explosion accident. Found this newspaper report on Find My Past from July 1837 which describes the accident which blinded John, which took place at 6 Worship Street. But he was involved in the manufacture of Lucifer matches. So he was mixing dangerous chemicals - not sweet-scented rose petals and jasmine!
This ties in with the dissolving of the partnership between John Seabrook and Hayden Samuels which was reported in August 1837 - 6 Worship Street. http://search.findmypast.co.uk/bna/v...18370718%2f026 Last edited by Shona; 02-12-14 at 12:26.
