Title: James STREET and his wayward father (possibly) Edward SHEPPARD Jnr.
Post by: Paul Street on Wednesday 07 October 09 19:43 BST (UK)

Does anyone know anything about an Edward Sheppard Jnr. who may have fathered James to Jemima Miles (later Street) baptized May 7, 1830 in Pirton? James was an illegitimate child who was later known as James Street. I believe Jemima went to court to get assistance from Edward to raise James.

Cheers
Paul

Further to my first post, there is an Edward Sheppard who died in Hitchin June, 1854

Oops

In my previous posts I should have written "Richard Sheppard Jr.", not Edward.

Hope this will spark something.
