17 October 1840

From: 1840 To: 1840

I am 24 years of age and was born in Worndich in Huntingdonshire where my father resided. About half a year after my birth my father lived at Swineshead in Huntingdonshire in a house of his own, he now resides there. Seven years ago last Michaelmas I let myself as a servant to Joseph Kennings of St Paul, Bedford, saddler. I have lived with him ever since at his house. I was paid by the year. I now occupy a house in St Paul at the annual rent of £5.10. I was married on Wednesday 14th October instant to Mary Parrott.
