Fysher Phillips Negus date of birth is quoted on his naval records

I cannot access/trace him on any baptismal records nor can i find him on 1841 or 1851 census. His wife Mary was staying with her mother is Southsea in 1851 census. I assume that at the time of both census he was away at sea.

I am sure that his parents never married as the will of Fysher Colman Phillips was made in December 1834 which he quotes Fysher Phiilips Negus as his natural child by Elizabeth Phillips. He died the following year.

If anyone can let me see any records or has further i formation i would be thakful

I Picked up on your chat about a year ago and put it aside as I found it confusing, However I have looked and my tree again and still confused.

I am approaching it from a different angle - My 3rd Great Grandfather was Fysher Phillips Negus born 25 May 1820 in Alverstoke Hampshire - I haven't been able to trace birth certificate or baptismal records for him but this date has been verified. He went on to become an eminent Naval Surgeon and ended up as  the Deputy Inspector General of Hospitals and Fleets and died in 1879 in Southsea.

His parents were Fysher Colman Negus [ A "Gentleman"1785 - 1835[ died Gosport Hants] and Elizabeth Phillips

The will of Fysher Colman Negus describes Fysher Phillips Negus as my natural child by the said Elizabeth Phillips. I am not aware of any other children by this couple or on their own.  At the time of writing his will also mentions a Mrs Amelia Phillips who was living with him at the time.

Has any of your subsequent research thrown any more light on the matter. The baptismal dates mentioned by "Little Nell" of 16 July 1820 would seem feasible for my Fysher.

Can anyone throw any more light on this

Many Thanks

Paul R Button

PS by Coincidence Fysher Phillips Negus was stationed in Malta from 1866 to 1870 with his family and had a daughter born out there and also unfortunately one of his sons died there

Europe / Italy: Bazzi Family
« on: Thursday 10 December 09 21:23 GMT (UK)  »
My Great Great Grandfather was Enrico Guiseppe Bazzi - I beleive he was born either in Milan or in the Lake Maggiori Area in 1841.  He married a Mary Negus in 25/08/1883 in Paddington and they had 4 children all born in the UK.

I would like to find out more details of his ancestry He died in 17/9/1905 in the French Hospital in London but no clue as to where he is buried.

I have details of his wifes and childrens deaths and Burials

He was a hotelier in London but at each Census in 1891 and 1901 he is living at a different address to his wife and children - why?

Can anyone let me know where to start? I would like to find details of his anscestry abroad in Italy[possibly Switzerland]. Also when and why he came to the UK

came accross your discussions through googling fysher Negus - wondering if anyone had got anymore info on him

My links are Fysher Phillips Negus was my Great Great Great Grandfather born 25 May 1920 so the christening date of yours falls in line.  His parents were Fysher Colman Negus and Elizabeth Phillips. As far as I can see this couple were never married.  The will & testament of Fysher Colman Negus gives bequests to Elizabeth Phillips " the natural mother of his son Fysher Phillips Negus.

I am not aware of any other siblings for him through either parent

If anyone has found out anymore I would be interested
