Oxfordshire / Re: Jane Gadney (Nee Stevens)
« on: Today at 14:40 »
I think the suggestion is that Robert Gadney senior was born about 1640. He had at least three sons: Robert, John and Thomas. Possibly he came originally from Wytham.

In 1641, in the Oxfordshire Protestation Returns, there was a Thomas Gadney at Wytham.

Thomas the pipe maker was first recorded in 1697, so he might be a brother of your John Gadney. A bit earlier, in 1667, there was a Robert Gadney, of St Mary Magdalen, Oxford, taking an apprentice, thought it doesn't say in what trade.

Do you know when John Gadney died? There's a John Gadney, of Oxford, cutler, recorded in 1740 and 1742. Or this might be his son. There was also a Thomas Gadney, of Oxford, tobacco pipemaker, recorded in 1711 and in 1697.

You could try Chancery Rolls, especially Close Rolls, Fine Rolls, and Patent Rolls. These go back to the early 1200s. Also Inquisitions Post Mortem might help.

For a good overview of sources, there's Chris Phillip's Medieval English Genealogy. Strictly speaking Medieval would be pre-1500 but there are many sources up to 1600. Many of these are for upper classes, but probate records and common law records can help.

There's a Ralph de Hauville in Domesday Book, 1086, in Thornhill, Wiltss

The earliest I found in Moulsford is William Hawevyle or Havyle, of Mulsford, husbandman and bailiff.
