John Fardon - Chapter 5

Return to Chapter Listing

Chapter 5 ~ D - John, son of John and Mary
Narrative

Little is known about John, who probably spent the whole of his life in Temple Guiting, and who died there probably unmarried at the age of 50.

John was baptised in November 1794, the first son of John Fardon and Mary Seacombe. He is next seen in the 1841 census, unmarried, age 45, living at home in Temple Guiting with his parents (his father John D senior, he John D junior). No occupation is shown, but his father is listed as a blacksmith; perhaps he was helping in this. Four years later he died at the age of 50, only months before his father, and was buried in the village.
