Would someone with access to the Parish Records mind looking for this please?
Job and Charlotte Graves had several children all born in St Margaret's Westminster..Charlotte 1816,Charlotte 1817,Alice 1824,Esther 1821,Abraham 1830,Job 1825 and Mary Ann 1838.I have all the baptism dates from familysearch,but I would like to know Job's job!!
The 1841 is not much help as says he is independant,so I guess he has retired?
If not on the Baptisms,would it be on his marriage to Charlotte?(Married Charlotte Ludlow in 1818 in London
Thanks for any ideas

Thank you.That clears a few things up..
Ihad wondered why they were not married when the first children were born.....
Also,I know Thos Ludlow to be Charlotte's father and Martha is one half of the couple I thought to be Job's parents...now I know that to be right too,so that is a great help!!

No,I didn't have a John.Londonbelle found him,but he seems to be one of Job and Charlotte's.
The ones I mentioned originally are definitely mine.I have all marriages (apart from MaryAnn's ,a spinster and young Job who seems to have disappeared)
