John
My William BARTLETT was born about 1775 in Kensington, Middlesex, married
Mary BROOKS(?) and had six children 1801 - 1821. No Peters as far as I can
tell so is unlikely to be related to yours.
I would appreciate any BARTLETT information you come across from Plymouth
however, as it might help me sort my lot out.

I have William in the 1841 and 1851 censuses in Stoke Damerel and Morice
Town.

Cheers
