Ok get your grey cells round this one.

We Have an Isaiah Pearson here....
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =981717416

-born abt 1830
-dies in 1865 ...death certif confirmed and viewed.see notes on Bcc
-marries harriet Jasper
-on 1861 with Harriet and kids see notes on bcc
-signs name in 1855 on marriage

so Isaiah dies and then Harriet lives as wife with Hezekiah Pearson here...
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =882657839
-He marries Maria Attwood in 1853...they separate...she goes on to remarry...Hezekiah is back in 1861 as a wid with father (made up info I think)
-Then in 1871 living with Harriet Jasper see Bcc notes
-brewer on census
-dies in 1891 again death certif info confirmed
-on his marriage in 1853 he X on marriage

now question is on death for Isaiah in 1865 informant is Solomon Pearson
I think it is this one
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =689269502

wondered if Solomon was a brother
but no Isaiah as Brother....Hezekiah is but he is the one who dies in 1891 and is living as husband with Isaiahs wife in 1871 onwards.
Note the occup for Solomon Grocer......Isaiah puts a father Richard Pearson as Grocer....so occup is in family....
We couldnt find a Richard Pearson and Isaiah and cant find Isaiah in 1841 or 1851.

I wondered if maybe he is an Isaiah another surname not Pearson

Hezekiah and Isaiah are not same person 2 different guys
1 dies 1865
other 1891
confirmed by certifs both happen to "marry" Harriet Jasper

anybody find an Isaiah in 1841 or 1851

and who are wits
Thomas Brookes and Catherine E Bills

Give up ? ? ? ?

I cant see a Catherine Elizabeth Bills on 1841 or 1851 either

We have cracked that there are 2 different guys based on death certifs RF
kindly ordered

can anyone see those wits on census pls

So this could be a dau to Sarah Bills
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =407238335

that would work and she is Caroline Pearson on census
Sarah doesnt marry until 1837

so is Isaiah and those others born before 1837 kids to Sarah Bills

any other bapts pls

amending Caroline Pearson to Caroline Bills or Elizabeth Caroline

Is that age correct in 1861 for CAroline that marries thomas Brookes.
