Isaac Bird

(between 1797 and 1798 - 19 December 1838)
     Isaac Bird was born between 1797 and 1798 in London, England. Being aged 40 at his death in Dec 1838 suggests a 1798 birth. The IGI shows an Isaac son of John & Sarah baptised 29 Mar 1797 at St Luke's Chelsea (the register provides no further information but an Isaac was buried there on 27 Nov 1802), or son of James & Mary bp 30 Jun 1799 at Gamlingay, Cambridgeshire, or son of Joshua & Mary (Milborne) baptised 30 Mar 1799 at Armathwaite, Cumberland. As his eldest son was named John I lean towards the first family, but his maternal grandfather was also a John (Paul). Isaac was of the parish of Newington, Surrey which is south London when they married. John & Sarah of London also had the following issue : John bp 31 Aug 1794 at St Luke's, Thomas bap 7 Apr 1799 at St Luke's' William bap 28 June 1801 at St Luke's.

A John & Sarah (Applegard) married 15 Oct 1780 at St Leonard's Shoreditch. He was christened on 29 March 1797 in St Luke, Chelsea, London. There is no evidence to support this baptism (son of John & Sarah), just a likely date, but another Isaac born about the same time was still in England in the censuse s nd possibly died there in 1884. The census entries indicate a Bristol baptism. However an Isaac married a Sarah Fairburn in ... and one of his grandchildren had a middle name Fairburn.
