Spouse: MARIA PEARCE Family
Marriage: 23 JUN 1826 Stoke Saint Gregory, Somerset, England

I don't think the 1826 marriage can be for the Mariah in the 1851 - she would only have been about 3!

GEORGE BELL Pedigree

Christening: 10 MAR 1805 North Petherton, Somerset, England

Parents:
Father: WILLIAM BELL Family
Mother: SARAH
Messages:
Extracted birth or christening record for locality listed in the record.

Other children of William and Sarah Bell baptised North Petherton
William 25/12/1800 (before marriage but clearly theirs as parents shown as William Bell and Sarah Duddridge)
Betty 19/4/1802
JOHN 25/12/1802(presume died young)
Charlotte 13/7/1803
George 10/3/1805 (presume died young)
George 14/10/1811
James 3/1/1814
John 7/1/1816

I think this is more likely to be George and Mariah's marriage, looking at the children's ages in 1851 but until Thomas comes back we can't be sure we have the right George:

Marriages Mar 1845 (>99%)
BELL George Bridgwater 10 531

Dunstone Maria Bridgwater 10 531

In 1851 William is 78 Ag Lab wid living in North Petherton with Mr and Mrs Burnett
In 1841 he is 63 (ages rounded down on that year) and living with a mary 50 so possibly he married again after Sarah died
William himself died 1856 Jun Q Bridgwater 5a 285 and was baptised 19/5/1777 North Petherton son of Robert and Sarah

This is better
