Tucker, William

Notes:

The Tucker family
This family has resided in the Blackawton area since at least the beginning of the sixteenth century to the present day. In 1525 two John Tuckers were assessed for goods on the subsidy roll, while in 1581/82 and 1591/92 Nicholas, John and William Tucker, who were probably brothers, were all similarly assessed at Blackawton.
On 22 September 1574 William Tucker married Joan Peke, daughter of Richard Pyke (Peke) (c.1520-1570), at Blackawton, and during the seventeenth century there were at least two other marriages between Pekes and Tuckers.
On 1 August (or 1 September) 1616 Richard Peke (born c.1594) and Jane Tucker (1594/95-1665/66) were married at Blackawton; she was the daughter of Nicholas Tucker and baptised at Blackawton 21 January 1594/95. Luce Peke, one of Richard and Jane Peke's daughters, married another Nicholas Tucker at Blackawton on 27 June 1654; she and her husband were almost certainly first cousins. In 1641/42 a Nicholas Tucker (probably father of the last-mentioned Nicholas) was Constable of Blackawton.

William married (Peike), Joan Peke on 22 Sep 1574 in Blackawton. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
