Loomis....

That is the missing link in all of this!
Sorry guys that i haven't been able to respond sooner...your help is much appreciated.

Hannah Slack born c. 1801 married John Clarke also born c. 1801 on 25th March 1822.

I haven't got much on Hannah, but here's info on John:

1841 aged 40 living in Codnor a stocking maker
1851 aged (54?) a framework knitter living at Bullock Yard, Codnor
Noted as a FWK (farmworker?) at his son James' marriage in 1852.

Their children were Ann, James, John, Thomas and William.

I'm going to have to spend a bit of time piecing the Pepperday/Abbot story to this, but almost certainly this is the link I was hoping for...linking it all into the Clarkes.

It also gives me Ellen Slack, who is effectively my 4x great grandmother!

Thank you so much!

Strangely, I know at least two other people who have Pepperdays in their families...and I'm certain that Gervaise is one of them! It means I'm related to my oldest friend!
