John was born in Farnham Surrey before 3 June 1825 which is the date of his christening there. He is the son of John Gillam and Sarah.
On 1 November 1846 at St Mary's Church Frensham, John married Jane Boxall. John and Jane had 2 children together, a son born in 1848 and a daughter born in 1849.
John was widowed in February 1851. He passed away in Farnham in September 1867 and he was interred in Wrecclesham on 22 September 1867.
We understand that following Jane's death, John remarried to Rose Ann Arundell with whom he had a number of children. We have prepared John's profile largely from the perspective of his time spent married to our relative Jane Boxall. Accordingly, it is not our intention to create Wiki profiles for his second wife nor for the children who came from that marriage. However, we strongly encourage others to do so. If you do, please delete this note.
