Title: Sage family - Pyle/Maesteg
Post by: tweety on Tuesday 14 February 06 17:08 GMT (UK)

My G G G Grandfather was Thomas Sage b c 1815 in Selworthy Somerset.  His wife was Elizabeth Sage.  From census records and the birth details of their children it looks like they moved to Maesteg around 1848.

Their children were:

George b 1843 Withypool Somerset
Anne b 1845 Withypool
Elizabeth b 1847 Exton Somerset
May 1849 ~Llangynwydd
Thomas b1855 Maesteg (my GG Grandfather)
Harriet b 1857 Pyle
Jane b 1859 Pyle
Elizabeth Jane b 1866 Llangynwydd

Thomas Jnr moved to the Rhondda and married a Mary Davies - from then on I know  plenty of details as my mum still lives in Mary Davies' house!

I'm interested in finding more info on the rest of Thomas Snr's children and what happened to them - do I have any distant relations still in Bridgend?  I believe his wife may have died and he remarried.  Any help with birth/marriage/death records for the family would be great.

Checked FreeBMD for surname 'Sage' in Brigend reg district and had about 16 names - some for births, marriages etc of names you mentioned...

Too many to list here, check Freebmd for further info

Hope this helps

If you click on the page number you will get a list of possible spouses...if you have an idea of who they married you can get maiden names etc...
