Charles Daniel's Parentage

Charles Daniel Juchau was born to Lewis Charles Juchau and Martha Dugdale on 29 May 1822 in Saint Luke Old Street, Middlesex, England. He was the oldest of at least 11 children.

The following is Charles' christening record, dated September 28, 1823. He was christened at the same time as his younger sister, Martha. Martha had been born on August 28.

Lewis and Martha were married by banns two years earlier on August 5, 1821 in St. Giles without Cripplegate, London, England. Both were living in the parish. Lewis is listed as a bachelor and Martha as spinster. Here is a copy of the marriage entry.

I'm not sure how significant it might be that Lewis and Martha were married in one parish and began having children in another--the localities are close to one another and I believe that it may be simply that both were living with their families prior to the marriage and they moved into a place of their own once they were married.

Where were the children born? (Part 1)

In a previous post I discussed where Charles and Susannah were married. Let's look at where the children were born. Charles and Susannah had three girls.

Susannah was born 6 Dec 1845 at 7 Johns Row in the Registration District of Saint Luke Middlesex. She was christened on 4 Jan 1846 in the Parish of Saint Luke.

Charlotte was born 14 Feb 1849 at 7 Ratcliffe Row in the Registration District of Saint Luke Middlesex. She was christened on 11 Mar 1849 also in the Parish of Saint Luke.

Mary Ann was born 28 Dec 1853 at 28 Arlington Street in the Registration District of Goswell Street, Middlesex. Due to the fact that Charles and Susannah were baptized into the LDS Church on 7 Jan 1851, Mary Ann was not christened in the Church of England.

I've created a small Google Map with a few locations designated at which Juchau family vital events took place.
