WILLIAM HOCKRIDGE C1783

Have not established Williams parents

 

William was born about 1783 (1) in Kilkhampton, Cornwall. He married Audrey Shisel on 7 Jun 1814 (2) in Stoke Damerel, Devon.

Audrey Shisel or Shizzell was born about 1791 (1) but I have not been able to find her baptism

William possibly had a brother John as there is another marriage in Stoke Damerel on 3 Oct 1816 (2) to Tamzon Shezzell - possibly two brothers and two sisters.

William's childrens baptism show he worked as a Rigger. He and Audrey remained in Devonport, Stoke Damerel where I have traced 4 children.
