Have you checked 'Search All Member Trees' (under 'Search' top right of page) other Members seem to be sharing George and Maria, perhaps they might be able to help further, hopefully!.

...........................would make date of birth abt. 1760?


there's also this one but no age given:-

.......but this one is not long after the baptism so she may have died from complications after the birth?

Thanks for helping Chris ho the truth is I cannot remember where I got the birth date of George Carpenter from I think it looked about right I know it is not quite right to do that but I was going no where that is why I am here asking for help . Yes Marie Carpenter is my three times great grandmother and Esther Perrot born1840 is my great grandmother Elizabeth Jessey Perrott born 1845 sister and also Anna Marie born 1835 was a sister to them there father was John Perrott . But it was George Carpenters birth now and death also what happened to his son George born1817 from his second marriage I know George was not on the 1841 census so where was he had he died and his son George where were they Elizabeth Carpenter [ Perrott ] John Perrotts wife was not there. By 1851 census Anna was in Wellington working and Elizabeth Perrott Johns wife had died in 1849 and John Perrott and two of his children Elizabeth Jessey and Levi George born 1847 were living with his mother and Esther was with Marie Carpenter her other grandmother it is so confusing any help will help Joe
