5. [OVER651] John Overall (born 1776) married (at Feering, 3rd November 1799) [TOTH652] Mary Totham (born 1782, see TOTHAM), witnessed by John Richardson (Mary's mother's brother) and Martha Totham (Mary's mother). They had nine children some if not all born at Feering as follows:

Mary (born 1801), married (at Bradwell-juxta-Coggeshall, 4th October 1825) Thomas Cutmore;
Joseph (born at Feering, 1804);
Hannah (probably born at Feering, 1806, baptised at Feering, 2nd June 1811);
4. [OVER662] Sarah (born at Feering, 1809, baptised there 2nd June 1811), married William Wood, see later;
Eliza (born by 1811, baptised at Feering, 28th July 1811);
Elizabeth (born 1817, baptised at Feering, 9th November 1817, died (age 4 months) at Feering (buried there 15th March 1818);
Elizabeth and William (twins, born 1819, baptised at Feering, 28th August 1819), both died (age 3) at Feering (buried together, 24th February 1822);
Maria (born at Feering, 1821), married 1. (at Feering, 3rd February 1844) Samuel Clark, witnessed by James Bright and Emma Brisendon; then 2. (at Feering, 19th October 1850) George Green, witnessed by Solomon Wood and Sarah Bright.

Their 1st child, Mary, was never baptised. Their 2nd, 3rd and 4th children were baptised together (2nd June 1811), followed a month later by their 5th (28th July 1811). It is therefore not possible to say when these children were actually born. John died (age 73, of typhus, after also having had cancer on his face for some ten years) at Feering (1st November 1849, buried there 6th November 1849). At the 1851 Census, Mary (a pauper) was living at Kysens Green, Feering, and was noted as being deaf. She died (age 77, of bronchitis) at Feering (14th April 1859, buried there 20th April 1859).

4. [OVER662] Sarah Overall (born 1809, daughter of John) married (at Feering, 3rd December 1831) [WODK65] William Wood (born 1808, see WOOD).
