19 Sep 1885; Marriage; Launcells, Stratton, Cornwall, England
(Marriage Q3, 1885, John DARCH, , Stratton, 5c, 4)
John Darch (aged 44, Bachelor, Labourer of Launcells, son of John Darch, Labourer) married Elizabeth Batten (aged 29, Spinster, Domestic Servant of Launcells, daughter of Richard Batten, Labourer). Witnessed by James Jordan and Eliza Jordan.
The family is in Stratton in 1891, John then aged 40 and appears to have died in 1894 aged 62. In censuses, they have six children born between 1886 and 1895, plus one apparently born in 1877!
John claims to be born in Stratton in the 1891 Census, but there is no available John, son of John other than the husband of Mary Ann Penfound (who remarried to Robert Sandercock in 1868). I suppose it's possible they were both bigamists - and their daughter appears to have been a mother at 11 or 12 years old!
