Great x3 Half Aunt Patience Easterbook

My Great x3 Half Aunt Patience (1811 - 1811) was an older half sister of my Great Great Grandfather Ezekiel Herd Easterbrook (1839 - 1920).

Patience was born around 1811 in Exbourne, Devon, to Walter Easterbrook (about 22), an agricultural labourer, and Ann Easterbrook (nee Ballamy), a housewife.

Patience was baptised on Christmas Eve (24th December) 1811, in Exbourne.

Patience was the youngest of three children (two girls and one boy):

• Ann  1810 -
• Thomas  1810 - 1811 (0 years old)
• Patience  1811 - 1811 (0 years old)

Sadly Patience's older brother Thomas died young. He was buried seven months after he was baptised. Assuming he was baptised as a young baby, he was probably not yet one year old, when he passed away. On 4th April 1811, Thomas was buried, in Exbourne. 

Eight months later, Patience herself also passed away as a very young baby. 

On 27th December 1811, Patience was buried, in Exbourne. She had only been baptised three days before!

Then Patience's mother Ann passed away.

On 14th October 1812, Ann was buried, in Sampford Courtenay (about two and half miles from Exbourne, where Thomas was baptised).

Later in life, Patience's father Walter had another son.

Patience had one younger half brother:

• Ezekiel Herd Easterbrook 1839 - 1920  (80 years old)

On a personal note, I love the name Patience.
