John Maycock married Susanna Blazey (bap. 11 Jul 1792 in Wymondham), daughter of Samuel Blazey and Susanna Plunkett, at St Martin at Oak, Norwich on 17 Jul 1811. (They were married by Charles Tanqueray, Clerk [in Holy Orders] and one wonders if he was linked to the Charles Tanqueray of gin fame.) Witnesses were Samuel Rainbird and Stephen Codman.
Susanna Blazey came to this marriage with a son, Francis Stephen Blazey, who was born on 26 Dec 1810 and baptised on 30 Dec 1810, also at St Martin at Oak, Norwich. The baptism record makes it absolutely clear that Francis was 'illegitimate born'. He never took this stepfather's name, so I think it fairly safe to assume that Maycock was not Francis' biological father.
So far, I can find no further records for John Maycock. I have no idea of his age, nor when or where he was born and neither can I find a record of his death. Similarly, I've not found any children born to this couple.
There are banns of a marriage between Thomas Bray and a Susan Maycock, Widow, also at St Martin at Oak, in November 1819, which might relate. However, I can similarly find no other records of Thomas Bray, nor any children of that marriage, nor a death of a Susan or Susanna Bray.
