Have found a long article into the inquest of the death of Francis Rice - too long to type in full but will do a synopsis and send the actual article to Douglas. |

Yes I can see your Point Marie. Occupation : it is clearly written as Caplain but may have been misspelt. Thank you very much for all your help. |

Douglas, might James' occupation on the marriage certificate be "captain" - that would fit in with being a waterman? |

Yes Shirley you may be right. It is a bit puzzling that Peter put his fathers name down as James Rice on both marrage cert with different Occupations. Its as if his father was still alive at that time. One off his fathers Occupation was a Caplain what is that ? Mary Ann Rice ( Peter James Rice,s mother? ) did have a illegitimate son which she called John Alfred Rice that was about 18 months after her husband Francis died in 1840. |

As his dad died when he was young he may guessed at a name for his marriage so as not to appear illegitimate , |

Workhouse records aren't my area (someone will be along who knows more) but thought I'd post this in case it turns out to be useful: |
