I've no idea how an accountant turns into a gentleman, unless it means he has enough money and no longer has to work?

Thanks Det. Any ideas about tracing William Rivers Dunnett birth, parents etc?

The only 'useful' info from the 1823 marriage posted earlier, to Ann Sophia Jackson, is that William Rivers Dunnett is 'from the parish of St Faiths in the City of London'. This doesn't necessarily mean that he was born there.
Witnesses were E Jackson, T? S? Jackson and Sam possibly Sweet. Not sure about that, but certainly not Dunnett.
A later generation (NOT your William Rivers Dunnett) has this baptism.
William Rivers Dunnett Gender: Male Birth Date: abt 1839 Christening Date: 15 Sep 1839 Christening Place: Bealings Parva, Suffolk, Eng, Suffolk, England Father's Name: Philip Dunnett Mother's Name: Sarah Anne
It seems strange that the same combination of names has reoccured in a different part of the country.
On familysearch.org, there are quite a few Dunnett records in Suffolk, but nothing obvious for your ancestor.

Thanks again Det. It does seem strange that there could be 2 William Rivers Dunnett but I suppose they could be related in some way. I think I found a William Dunnett on 1851 census living in Chorlton which would tie in with 1841 census but I don't have a subscription so couldn't look it up
