John Heath - Staffordshire late 1700's to early 1800's

Thank you so much - AMAZING!

I'll need to go over this but the marriage to Lucy Mayer was the other John I had as a possible - in fact I had originally followed this line until some of John's ages on the Census didn't stack up with me. Mayer also appears as a middle name for a number of my family members (my grandfather being one)

I also had him as married to an ANN previously so it was good to have that verified, although I had found him with an Ann Heath (nee HEATH) from the Bristol area and I had found an 1841 census that appeared to back that up a bit but it was tenuous to say the least. I like this other marriage and will check into it.

My research is generally confined to lunch hours at work so I'll see how this takes me and once again, thanks for all your help

This is Lucy Heath in 1841 (she died at the end of the year) with her children Sarah, James, John and Thomas:

Here are the burials of John and Lucy and Lucy's brother:

A140. James MAYER of Chesterton, 20 Feb 1815, 33
John HEATH, brother-in-law, 10 Oct 1826, 62
Lucy, widow of John HEATH, 2 Dec 1841, 57
Sarah, w/o Timothy CLEWLOW, 29 Nov 1872, 58

It looks like their daughter Sarah too.

I think the date should be 1836 for John Heath's burial.

His will is on FMP.

Thanks everyone for all the replies - it's really helped and I'm in the process of working my way through it all. I've just copied my trees onto FMP too so there's quite a lot come up on there too.
