Gloucestershire Lookup Requests / Re: Old Elm Cottage, Churchdown
« on: Saturday 20 February 21 15:12 GMT (UK) »
I have the record of Giles Daniels and Anne Clark marrying in Badgeworth in the 1700's. Their son William (yes, another one) who married Mary Andrews in 1776 in Holy Trinity Church. Are they the ones you are thinking of? One puzzle (of many) is on a parish record of a Daniels marriage in Churchdown. On there is also recorded the marriage of a chap called Showell marrying a Sarah Spiers. I am related to the Showell family of Birmingham and it is thought we have connections to the Spiers family. Surely this can only be a huge coincidence? Have you heard of the Showells or Spiers?
The more I research the questions I seem to find...............

Thank you both for trying to help me. My great great grandfather was Charles Daniels brother of William who married Elizabeth Price. He moved to West Bromwich with his wife Sarah Gibbs and so the Birmingham based Daniels family began! Charles and Sarah had a son John who married Alice Ann Salcombe in St James church in Handsworth. Their son Frederick James married my lovely Nan Mary Clements. Charles Daniels went on to marry another 2 wives and had 9 children!

Hi does anyone have any photos of the Old School House on the green at Churchdown or of the Daniels family who lived there please?
I have just found out my family hails from the village and used to live in the house. Due to lockdown I am unable to travel there at the moment. I would be very grateful for any information.

« on: Friday 19 February 21 14:59 GMT (UK) »....I have just looked the book up on Amazon and it is listed for £160 so I don't imagine people will be rushing out to buy it! Worthwhile looking out for in charity shops perhaps. I also own a copy of 'A Village History - Churchdown 1904-1954' by Hermione Oram - this was my grandmother's, who was in service in the village before WW1, and married a Daniels whose grandparents lived in the Old School House on The Green. If anyone would like any information from either of these books, please let me know and I'll look it up, as they seem to be quite a scarce resource.Hi Anna which one of the Daniels family did your grandmother marry? I am related to the family. Are there any relevant photos in Hermione's book? I have ordered the other book from Amazon for £7. We are probably cousins...
Kind regards

Hi Rosie
I am looking for information about James and Rosina Edwards in the late 1800's,early 1900's. Rosina's maiden name was Showell. I know James was born in London and moved to Birmingham. His father was Samuel but I don't know his mother's name.
Kind regards
