This is NOT the same William who appears later as a Tailor, married to Elizabeth. That William (Frederick) is in my tree and was the son of James Adamson Best and Harriet Parker. William Frederick was also living in Fore Street in 1841 - aged 6

  Noted events in his life were:

• Occupation: Wheelwright App, 1851, Littleham, Exmouth, Devon.
