Hi Diddy,
I wanted to say "thank you" for the information you found on the Stevenson and Rogers families. I appreciate all the effort you have gone to. My family will be impressed when I show them how far back your research has taken us.
Cheers...Prof

Hi Diddy,
This is fantastic, I can't tell you how pleased I am with your findings!
I have been researching my family since 2000 and since 2002 I haven't found any new information. It was pure chance I found you. I typed into Google, "Stevenson family, Loughborough and Tiverton." The search result brought up the link to Rootschat and I read your posts.
My family are going to be thrilled, I only wish my father was alive. He would have been very interested to find out about the march the family made to Tiverton from Loughborough.
I am going to see if there is any information on this site for the Beck, Strong and Tapscott families who lived in Tiverton and are my ancestors.
Well done Diddy-thank you!
Prof

I have no information on William Stevenson born on Loughborough c.1805.
I have information on his son, William Thomas Stevenson- Birth, marriage and death certificates, plus census information.

Hi,
I am a decendant of a William Stevenson born in Loughborough c.1805. He moved to Tiverton where he was a Machine Smith in a lace factory. He married Elizabeth Beck on 20/12/1838 and had 4 children His son was named William Thomas Stevenson.
On the 1841 census he lived at Back Lane, Tiverton.
On the 1851 census he lived at Bridge Street, Tiverton.
On the 1861 census he lived at Melbourne Street, Tiverton.
William senior died in Tiverton on 13/07/1866.
I think there may be a family link to John Stevenson and I would appreciate any help/information anyone has regarding this.
Thanks
