Hello all
I have Joseph Gage bn 1830 in Congresbury, and possibly his sister Fanny Gage born a year earlier in 1829 also in Congresbury.
Is there anyone who can confirm this and tell me who the parents were.
Thank you
Liz

Won't help much but can tell you their parents were not married at St. Andrew's Congresbury - Marriages & Banns 1800-1837

kcstadium (anything to do with hull)
Thanks for that info, I know it doesn't tell me who they were, but it does tell me not to look at the St. Andrews records when I go searching, so thank you very much.
Rumour has it that his parents were married somewhere nearer to Weston Super Mare
Thanks again

Hello Liz
KC - yes big supporter of the Tigers/Hull AFC (season ticket holder) although Iive 25 miles away.
My paternal ancestors including my grandfather come from Somerset (Yatton/Clevedon) although my father never told me.
Always looking on the Somerset site.
Good luck with your search
Regards

Hello liz
If you look at the Weston super mare family history site they have indexes for several churches and there are several Gages married at Kingston Seymour church 1754-1837. They may be worth investigating. The FHS may also help with your enquiry.

Hi Thelip
Thanks for the reply, we have been on the WsM site and found some Gage's and have listed them, unfortunately they cant be linked with ours yet.
We have now found the parents of Joseph Gage and his now confirmed sister Fanny, they are, John Gage and Betsy Sawyer, we have found the marriage banns for them and the death details of john, the problem is now we can't find the details of John's birth c 1805. that is for another day.
Thanks again
Liz
