Biography

Henry Pascall, was born before 5th February 1753 (the date of his baptism.) [1] He was born into a family of brick-makers from Kent. He also became a brick-maker, firstly in Chatham, Kent and later in Croydon & Norwood in Surrey. Later in life he became a baker. He passed away on 24th January 1829 and was buried on 2nd February.

Henry married Martha Boyden on 23rd May 1774 at St Giles in the Fields, Holborn, Middlesex. The witnesses were his brother Thomas & James Mollyner (who was also a witness at the wedding of Henry's brother Thomas the following month at St Alban Woodstreet, City of London.)


That Henry was born on “old New Years Day” appears to be a myth. New Year’s Day in the old calendar was March 25th.

No evidence of a descent from Huguenots has yet been found, and this belief may be mistaken. The surname Pascall may have its roots in a person who is born around Easter time & can be found (with various spellings) in England from the 1200s.
