I am descended from a Richard Eve born 1769 in Hatfield Essex. That could either be Hatfield Broadoak Essex or Hatfield Peverell,Essex. He married Ann Searle on 27 Nov. 1797 in Hatfield Broadoak. In the early 1800's we find them in West Ham Essex where several of their children were born. What puzzles me is that Richard and Ann and all their offspring i.e. their daughters and husbands, their sons and wives and children all crossed the Thames to Balham, then a small village in Surrey.(Now greater London). There Richard set up many businesses. Hairdrapers, greengrocers, chinadealers, stage coach service, tailors etc. They appeared to have arrived around 1820's.
Richard dropped dead in The George Balham on 5th Feb.1841 aged 72.

I have been unable to trace Richard's birthplace or his parents.
