Death of Wife:
General: The middle name of Perkins was used for several of Abraham's children in Census details and marriage or death certificates even though not on the christening registration.
On a few occasions the PICKARDs and PERKINs seem to have managed to get names mixed up or not registered at all. Therefore some identification has been reached by a combination of Census and other information.

Death of Wife:
General: Following her marriage to Edward Howe about 1845-1848, the couple were living in Little Park Street, Coventry. By 1861 they had moved to nearby New Buildings in the shadow of Holy Trinity church.
For the Censuses of 1881 and 1891 the family were living back in Little Park Street.
Mary died in 1893 and was buried at London Road Cemetary, Coventry.
Comments Puzzle:
The Perkins and Pickards (and later the Howes) seem to have been adept at messing up baptisms and registrations. Mary's birth is a puzzle and everything points to an incorrect name on the Baptism record for her and her father.
In 1893 Mary died, her name being stated as Mary Perkins Pickard Howe, aged 67. The age and distinctive second name of Perkins point to a baptism at St. Michael's, Coventry on 8th August 1825 of Mary Ann Perkins to Edward and Hannah Pickard.
Edward was stated to be a Butcher.

However no marriage of Edward and Hannah can be found, but a marriage of Abraham Perkins Pickard to Hannah Griffis took place on 5th Jan 1824 at St. Michael's. In addition the only Pickard family with a Hannah in 1841 in central Coventry that can be found is Abraham and Hannah in Palmer Lane. They had a 15 year old daughter Mary. Abraham was a butcher!
Unfortunately no baptism of Edward or Abraham has been found.
The name Perkins was the maiden name of a Lucy Perkins who married William PICKARD in 1799. It is likely that this couple were the parents of Abraham and grandparents of Mary. Could Mary's father's name be Abraham? Or could there have been an Edward Perkins Pickard?
Note: An interesting fact is that Edward and Mary's 3rd son was called Abraham, but his birth Certificate stated his father's name as Abraham, not Edward!!
What was it about the names Edward and Abraham with this family ?
1841 Census She was aged 15 at Palmer Lane in central Coventry with her parents
1851 Census Little Park Street, Coventry with her husband
1861 Census Hse 2 , Ct 6 New Buildings Coventry with her husband
1871 Census Bottom of White's Row, Kenilworth with her husband
