My G4 was John Hallett who married Mary Wale on 12th March 1799 in South Petherton. She was Christined on 27th May 1776 in SP Parish Church, and buried there on 23rd March 1813. Her parents were Joel and Anne Wale.
Mary had at least 7 children by John Haallett,and probably died in childbirth of Puerperal fever, as did my maternal G3.John's family were stone masons /builders.
A relative of Mary was Fanny Wale ( born about 1811) who married Samuel Hallett on 28th January 1830 in SP. Samuel was John and Mary's eldest son and also a Mason. They 'emigrated ' to Wales (Cardiff) and had at least 13 children. Fanny died in Cardiff (Canton District) in 1874.
John Hallett remarried , his second wife being Prudence (nee Groves). He died of Typhus Fever on 21st May 1843 , and Prudence on 31st May 1844 --both in South Petherton.
Samuel Hallett died in Cardiff in 1883.
I hope this is of interest to you. Much information was gained from micro fiches of the SP Parish Registers which were copied for me. I have therefore copies of the entries for the Wale family as linked to the Hallett name. It's pure luck that some vicars gave Birth days as well as the date of Baptism. Most only gave the latter. There is NO legal Birth Certificate for my Great Grandfather William Hallett, but in the Parish Register is written 4th March 1850 and the Baptismal one -12th April 1850.
Any info you can let ME have will be gratefully received , especially of the early period as I am unsure where John's ancestors came from.
All the best,
Robin H
