Hi All

I have Messengers and Stratfords mainly from Stokenchurch... Vast majority of them didn't go very far from home!

Hi Bryant

I'm also looking at the Westpfels, in fact I'm in charge of the Westpfel One-Name Study over at the Guild of One-Name Studies! I have censuses, certificates and photographs amongst other things!

I was wondering if a. we'd already spoken before, and b. if we haven't if you'd like to!

A Westpfel is my great grandmother, and I am in contact with a lot of Westpfel family.

What's your interest/connection?

Hi Jan

Well done finding Martha in 1841 - I didn't get a chance to look into her properly there, so thanks!

That seems to fit with my Martha too - the kids names fit with what I've got. After posting the previous messages, I went off to find what I could about the underwoods, and came up with John and Elizabeth as parents too, so looks a good fit. Where do they fit in for you? Would you like/need any info on Martha Bailey/Underwood's kids etc? I'm her great great great great great granddaughter!!

David,

Well I mayhave just come out trumps there...

MAYBE!!!

On the FFHS's FHO site, there's a reference in the Somerset and Sorset Strays for a John Bailey from Frome, Somerset:

Name JOHN BAILEY from FROME, SOM - Date 05/05/1756 to SUNDON, BDF, - Event Marriage Details MAR.ANN BOWLESLIC Reference SUNDON PRS.

As there's no Sundon, and if you say it out loud, it sounds like Sutton, maybe this is actually Sutton?

Clearly it's not my John, but maybe his father? I know it's reaching a little, but it would explain why they just appear?

I hadn't seen the bastardy report actually..., thanks for that!

As for Martha - do you mean John's wife?

Here's her quick bio:
1823 - last child was born
1841 - can't find her
1851 - living with one of her daughters, widowed, in Mill House (part of the "Mansion House" grounds I'd say, as that's the next property on the census), Sutton.
1861 - still living in same place, with same daughter and a granddaughter too (not from that daughter though!).
1871 - obviously dead (there's a reference to martha baileys dying in the biggleswade area in 1862)

The cenci show her as born in Pulloxhill, Beds.
