hi, If you are still monitoring this let me know. I have a Hammersley family tree done in the 1960's which starts with Titus' grand father William whose son Ralph b.1776 died in Sept 1845 and is buried in the churchyard o Hope Congregational church in Hanley, Staffs. His wife was Jane Greatback b.1784
died June 29, 1827. They had 10 children 9 of whom survived into adulthood. I am descended from Titus older sister Jane who married Samuel Asbury who worked for a while in Philadelphia as a china merchant taking his whole family there but later returning to the UK. Jane's youngest daughter Mary married Spencer Green of the Crown Staffordshire China Company. Jane's eldest son Samuel Ralph was first a missionary in India where his first wife died and eldest daughter was born. He returned to the UK and then followed his in-laws to America where he married his 'deceased wife's younger sister". He became an Anglican minister and eventually emigrated to Canada. He was my great grandfather. I am willing to share if you are still interested.
