The first 12th Century St. Mary's Church, Kingston, Portsea |
William Tubb (bap. 26 Mar 1752 at Sherborne St John, Hampshire), listed as being the son of John Tubb and Susannah Bedford, married Jane Bound (bap. 7 Mar 1749 at St Mary's, Portsea), daughter of John Bound, at the 12th Century St Mary's Church, Portsea on 8 Nov 1773.
Records point to William and Jane having six children:
- Jane Atkins Tubb bap. 15 Jan 1775 at St. Mary's Church, Portsea
- William Tubb bap. 17 Nov 1776 (buried 29 Jan 1778)
- Mary Tubb bap. 3 Jan 1779 at St. Mary's Church, Portsea
- John Tubb bap. 27 May 1781 at St. Mary's Church, Portsea
- Sarah Tubb bap. 27 May 1781 at St. Mary's Church, Portsea
- William Tubb bap. 12 Aug 1787 at St. Mary's Church, Portsea
Perhaps either William or Jane's ancestor's maiden name was Atkins.
John and Sarah baptised together in 1781, may have been twins, but without their dates of birth, it's impossible to be sure. Though, I think we can, sadly, assume that the William born in 1776 died as an infant, because the name was re-used for the last child. Having only seen the transcripts of these records, it may be possible that the originals give further clues.
Jane Tubb (née Bound) of Sun Street, Portsea, died, aged 77, and was buried on 9 Sep 1827 in 'the Parish Of Portsea, County Of Southampton' (the county of Hampshire is named after Southampton, clearly this was then still used).
As yet found no record that relates to the death of William Tubb.
