Afternoon!
I am trying to find any records of births, census entrys or deaths for Enock Morgan bc 1786 Cheltenham? and wife Frances Burgess- Morgan (nee Tomey) bc1790 Cheltenham?
Any help with this couple would be greatly appriciated! They had 1 child that i know of, Elias William Morgan b1812 Cheltenham. (Elias married in Surrey 1837 and died in 1877 Chelsea)
Many many thanks,
Penninah :-*

Can't see them on census 1841/51. No trace on NBI.
Have you looked at the IGI for baptisms www.familysearch.org

Hi,
My Tomeys passed through Cheltenham on their way to London: George Tomey and Mary Burgess married sometime before 1794, and had 5 children in Stroud, Gloucs, and another 3 in Cheltenham.
I have always suspected that Frances was their daughter, but I've never found a christening to prove it. Have you had any luck?

Hi there,
From what you have said i have no doubt that these were the parents of Frances! With a name like Burgess Tomey i can't imagine that she would belong to anyone else! Were any of the other children to this couple Burgess Tomey's? I have had no luck finding frances or Enochs baptisms, i live to far from Gloucestershire to get to the Ro.
Enoch and Frances moved to Chelsea, London sometime after the birth of their son Elias in 1812.
Many thanks
Penninah :)

No, none of the other children had Burgess in their name. George and Mary's other children were:
Mary, born 10 May 1794, christened 23 Jan 1795 in Stroud
James, c.11 Feb 1798, George in Stroud
George, born 7 Oct 1800, christened 2 Nov 1800 in Stroud
Henry, c. 8 May 1805 in Stroud
Richard, c.14 Jul 1805 in Stroud
Sarah Herson, c. 5 Jun 1807 in Cheltenham
Edward Jordan, c. 13 Aug 1809 in Cheltenham
Emma, born about 1816.
I am descended through their second son George, he was my 4xgreat-grandfather.
Mary died in 1851 in Kensington, but I haven't found George Senior's death yet, or christening either.
I'm hoping to get to the Gloucestershire RO sometime later this year, it's just a case of finding the time...
