He was the father of seven children, all except for the first son George were born in Peckham, and it is interesting that they were all returned to Barrow for their christenings. His home ties must have been very strong. It would appear that his first wife Emily (Talbot) may have died some time after the baptism of Peter in 1870 as the 1881 Census records his wife as being Louisa, aged 48 and born in Suffolk, This strongly suggests that Louisa may be the mother of the last two children, Mary born 1873 and Samuel born 1875.
