Title: Gage family
Post by: jogalvin on Saturday 24 July 04 14:14 BST (UK)
Any Gages pre-1900, in particular pre-1800. My earliest is Edward, who died 1774 in Damerham. Some of the family came from Damerham and/or Rockbourne. I am aware of the titled Gages in Firle, Sussex.

Hi Joseph,
I have the VRI and there are 25 Gage's in Hampshire between
1720 - 1892 (with large gaps). Can you give more clues on your family or are you doing a one name study? There are 289 countrywide on the disc. Regards, Frances

Frances,
My mother's parents were Thomas Neate and Julia Elizabeth Gage and I am seeking to establish her Gage ancestors. I have the following ,starting with Julia's parents:-
Wm James G b Damerham (1842/1903) m Sarah Yeates
James G b Damerham (1810/1896) m Judith Waterman
Mathew G b Damerham (1782/1827) m Jane Ambrose
John G b Damerham (1733/1806) m Elizabeth Thomas
Edward G (?/1774) b ? m Elizabeth ?
I have details of children but have shown parents only above.
I understand that Damerham was in Hampshire from 1895 and in Wiltshire prior to that. There seem to be some connections with Rockbourne, which, I believe, is and was in Hampshire. My CD of the Wilts 1851 Census lists only one Gage and he was a student at Marlborough College!
Mine is not a one name study, main interests are Neate, Gage, Yeates and Galvin.
Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Joseph,
I am sorry your elusive Edward G does not appear on the VRI.
I did find one on the IGI in 1773 but he was born in Essex.
The VRI is not complete and Damerham does not appear to have been included. If you would like me to send you the list of
Gages for Hampshire and Wiltshire around this time-frame let me know and I will send tham off board. Regards, Frances

Frances, A very belated to your response of June last for which I can only apologise most sincerely. Yes, I would appreciate a list of the Gages you referred to.

Hi Joseph,

Will catch up on this over the weekend. Maybe some new data has been published since your earlier posting and someone can help find your Edward ?:-\

Just a tip - I'm researching GAGE name in Norfolk and sometimes the spelling differs - e.g.

GEDGE
GIDGE
GEGG

and many more!

Might help in your search.

Gail
