    Note
    • This John Mallett is also a Watchmaker and Jeweller. He probably learned the trade from his uncle John back in Barnstaple. The son John is assumed to be part of this family because his age and occupation (also watchmaker) fit. The two Johns are living in separate households in the 1881 census. The photographs of the John Mallett family taken in Jersey are obviously of this family and not the John Mallett who was a clockmaker and jeweller in Bath. One of the photos shows the 3 brothers together and clearly states their names: John, Walter, and Fred.
