Hart-Little Family Tree

Edward and Mary were both born in Wolverhampton and lived there all their lives.

The names DRAPER and DRAPIER are both used in Mary's family records - Wolverhampton Baptism Archives name her DRAPER, yet she is named DRAPIER on her marriage record.
The BRINSFORD & LITTLEFORD branches had their origins in Shropshire - Thomas was born in Boningale, and Ann in Worfield.

Thomas PARKES + Mary BRINSFORD (1759- )

Esther (1786- )
William (1788- )
+Elizabeth GREGORY (1795- )

Mary (1797- )

In 1772 Thomas married Ann Hosier in Penn. He was recorded as being from Bushbury, where he (a widower) married Mary Brinsford in 1785.
All their children were born in Wolverhampton.

Joseph DRAPER (1770-1827) + Dorothy TURNER (1768-1841)

John (1794- )
Joseph (1796-1796)
Mary (1797-1852)
+Edward PARKES (1795-1874)
William (1801- )
Ann (1803- )
Joseph (1807- )
Sarah (1812- )
+ Thomas PYATT

Joseph's birthyear is calculated from his burial record. Could he have been the son of Joseph/Mary, baptised at Burton on Trent in 1772 ?
Mary's sister Sarah was recorded as DRAPIER in the Wolverhampton Baptism Archives, yet her name was given as DRAPER in 1834 when she married - Dorothy DRAPER was a witness.

I feel there is a good chance that John is the same John Draper who married Mary Oxford - their son Joseph married Emma Parkes (daughter of Edward Parkes/Mary Draper) - no records found for other John Drapers born ca.1790 in the Wolverhampton area.
