I forgot to add that I have a copy of Thomas's will.  It can be downloaded from Gloucestershire archives, but I could also send you a copy.

Gloucestershire / Re: Phelps Family From Gloucestershire
« on: Saturday 19 March 16 14:01 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Tempogold.
Thomas and Mary Phelps are my 5th great grandparents. I have recently spent a lot of time looking at Gloucestershire parish records on Ancestry and now have a fair amount of information about the family.  I believe that his parents were William Phelps (abt 1727 - 1786) and Hester (or Esther) Young (1732 - 1811). At the moment I am trying to verify (or otherwise!) that William senior's parents were William Phelps (1690 - 1751) and Mary Pennell (1689 - 1738) but have hit a brick wall. I've looked at other Ancestry trees but they give a birth dates/places that I think are questionable either because there is no evidence from the parish records or they probably relate to another William and Mary Phelps from Westbury.  I still have to look more closely at the latter. Is it possible that we can help one another?
Regards
