Title: RICHES, Suffolk, Essex & London
Post by: MelGee on Tuesday 14 March 06 23:17 GMT (UK)

I am trying to find further information (pre 1851 census) on the following people. I know of the two brothers James & Charles RICHES but wonder if there are any other siblings or whether anyone knows of their parents? I have seen a lot of postings about other RICHES nearby but have seen no common details.

James RICHES (Hd) b.1802 approx, in Worlingworth, Suffolk. He was a carpenter.
married to Mary (nee?) and had the following children:

Mary Ann b.1842 in Pimlico, London
Thomas b.1844 in Pimlico
Robert b.1846 in Pimlico
James b.1947 in Clapham, London
William b.1849 in Wandsworth, London (my great great grandfather)
George b.1851 in Clapham
Elizabeth b.1853 in Clapham


James' brother was Charles RICHES b.1798 in Worlingworth, Suffolk
married Martha (nee?) from Stroud, Kent, their children:

Eliza b. 1837 in Brixton, Surrey
Harriett b.1839 in Brixton
Elizabeth b.1841 in Brixton
Ellen b.1843 in Great Clacton, Essex
Nathaniel b.1845 in Great Clacton
Martha b.1846 in Gt Clacton
John b.1848 in Gt Clacton
James b.1851 in Gt Clacton
Charles b.1852 in Gt Clacton
George b.1854 in Gt Clacton

Any info or help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Mel

Hi Anne

 :D Thank you for the info - it certainly looks like the right people. I had come across Hurren before but could not prove they were related.  This will give me some more investigating to do!

Thanks again,
Mel
