Edward Pettit (son of Edward Pettit and Elizabeth May) was born January 11, 1807 in St Charles the Martyr, Plymouth, and died 1856 in Folkestone. He married Sarah Spearpoint on April 11, 1826 in Folkestone, Kent, daughter of Henery Spearpoint and Sarah Matson.
Notes for Edward Pettit: 1. Edward Pettit died in 1856 and his age was given then as 49. (Sorry - he was away from home in the 1851 census, so that gives us neither his age nor his place of birth.)
2. Edward Pettit was a Coastguard and his service record (extracted by Yolande Dunn) is as follows :
ADM 175/78 Register of Nominations for Appointments - 1833. This says he was born in Plymouth and his wife born in Folkstone.
ADM 175/6 Establishment Book Folkstone Feb 1833-May 1834 (2 entries) (Dungerness - proposed move to in April 1834 that was cancelled) No 2 Battery, Dungerness Dec 1838-June 1842 (There is a gap in dates June 1834-Dec 1838 but he moved to No 2 Battery from Folkstone and I could find no interim entry so assume that he was in Folkstone for this period.
ADM 175/7 Establishment Book Sandgate Jun 1843-Apr 1849 Lydd Apr 1849-July 1850 Preston, Weymouth July 1850-July 1853 Langley July 1853-Dec 1853 Enchantress Dec 1853 Death 13.1.1856
3. There is a record of the birth of an Edward Pettit on January 11, 1807 in the parish of St Charles the Martyr, Plymouth. Parents are Edward and Elizabeth Pettit. The Plymouth parish of East Stonehouse has not been searched, but most of the surrounding ones are on the on-line IGI and show no trace of him. I think that I am happy to take the 1807 record as the right one.
4. Note that I have searched the Devon FHS index of marriages for anyone who might be Edward's parents. Whoever they are, they certainly weren't married in Devon.
5. This obviously leads us back to Folkestone, where Edward Pettit and Elizabeth May (m.1805) are eminently suitable candidates for his parents. This is all the more suitable given that three of Edward's children have the middle name of 'May'. I think that I have to pencil these in fairly firmly.
6. The middle names of the children are very interesting ie. Spearpoint, May, Boxer and Milton. Spearpoint is obvious and comes from his wife's maiden name. As yet I have no clues whatever about Milton. The Boxer bit could have come from the Eliz Boxer who married a Tho Pettit in 1748 or the Sus Boxer who married Tho Spearpoint in 1744. Unfortunately both seem a little distant - it would be nice to find someone closer. Note that Edward Pettit (snr) was a widower at the time of his marriage to Elizabeth May. As yet, I have found no trace of his first marriage; was there a Boxer connection here ?
7. The witnesses at the marriage of Sarah and Edward were Sarah Pettit and Richard Hart. There are plenty of Sarah Pettits around to choose from. Canada we pin down Richard Hart ? The good news is that we have a Ric Hart in Folkestone who is second cousin to Sarah Spearpoints father. The bad news is that there were 6 Richard Harts born in Folkestone between 1733 and 1767, and between them they are probably related to everyone in the town.
