Robert Cawston Born Essex C1809

Robert Cawston came from Essex to London, and in 1839 he married Elizabeth Coulsell at St Saviour's, Southwark. He was a hatter, and on his marriage certificate it states that his father was Joseph Cawston, farmer (presumably in Essex). On Census returns he gives his birthplace as Colchester. Intensive searching has failed to find Robert's baptism, or other details. He died in London in December 1862, aged 53. There is a Robert Cawston recorded in the Poll Book for the 1830 election in Colchester, so he must have been 21 at the time of the election in that year. Andrew Wilson
