The Sweetten Family
Edward Maurice Evans Sweetten
28 November 1850
3 November 1854, in St Benet Gracechurch and St Leonard Eastcheap, London, England
Maurice Evans
Jane Baker Sweetten
Edward's sister, Mary Jane,
dropped the Sweetten from her name by the 1881 census - she probably
did it after the marriage of her parents in 1857 - and likely Edward
also dropped the Sweetten although I have not found evidence of it.
Jane Baker (Sweetten) Evans
1835/6, in London, England
John Baker Sweetten
Rebecca Butterworth
Maurice Evans on 29 April 1857, in St James, Paddington,
Middlesex, England. Maurice is recorded as the son of Maurice Evans.
Jane is recorded as the daughter of John Baker Sweetten.
1909, in Wandsworth district, London, England, aged 76
In proceedigs against insolvent debtors, this note about Jane's father is found in the London Gazette 21 March 1828 p578:
Sweetten, John Baker (sued and committed as
John Baker, and commonly called and known by that name), formerly of
Change-Court, Strand, Middlesex, then of Bond-Street, Lambeth, Surrey,
then of Little James-Street, Gray's-Inn-Lane, then of
Baldwin's-Gardens, Gray's-Inn-Lane, there keeping a Tin and Hardware
Shop, and late of Nortli-Crescent-Mews, Burton-Crescent, Middlesex,
Jobbing Bricklayer, Plasterer, and Slater.
which leads me to wonder if Jane also commonly used just Baker and dropped the Sweeten
