Ebenezer

Ebenezer born 26 Feb 1788 son of Rev John Hornblow & his wife Elizabeth Young in Braintree; Baptised on 20 Mar 1816 age 28 shortly before his marriage.

He was the brother who witnessed Sarah Hornblow Moore's bigamous marriage to 2nd husband John Cadle in 1816 in Deptford

Ebenezer Hornblow 1821 Master Silversmith of 4 Thames Inn Holborn took as an apprentice silversmith Freeman Henry Short son of John Short deceased of Walcot Place Lambeth Surrey; Living with is mother Susannah .

Ebenezer Hornblow son of John Hornblow deceased Apprenticed in 1820 to the silversmith Ebenezer Hornblow

Obviously there was more than one Ebenezer Hornblow.

Ebenezer son of Rev John . Born 1788 he would have been of suitable age to go as an apprentice in 1800 -
so by 1820 he would have been an Master Silversmith.

Ebenezer son of John Hornblow deceased - the apprentice silversmith in 1820 had to be the son of a different John.
Why the 2nd does not fit as the Ebenezer son of Rev John in 1820 ?
A) If he was born in 1788 he would have been 32 in 1820 & apprentices were invariably 12 to 15 years old
B) the son of Rev John appears to have married by 1820.

This was either son of one of the other Hornblow based in Halstead younger brothers or maybe a grandson;

Or he was son of John Hornblow the Coal dealer, & his wife Elizabeth Archer That father John died in 1798 but there is no Ebenezer recorded to that couple.
