Travelling People / Re: Moores of Norwich Gypsys ??
« on: Thursday 27 February 25 04:05 GMT (UK)  »
Hello possibly cousin? I believe Abrahams father Robert born in 1822 is the same Robert born in 1822, in Heigham parish to "John" (actually James") Moore and Elizabeth Drake they weren't gypsys as far as I know (although I'm long away down the line and we moved to ireland a 100+ years ago). My 5th great grandmother was Sarah Moore, who was probably an older sister of your ancestor Robert Moore (she was born in 1809).

Thanks for the reply. I guess it will probably always remain a mystery (the biggest one for me is Jude Hovey 1754 and Jude Hovey 1767 both sons of Jude and Mary) I'm guessing the first Jude died at some stage.

Hello Andy, I found his examination on ancestry and fold.com. Yes I have seen it I know that his father James Hovey was buried in 15 Jul at Norwich St Augustine's (I have his administration bond that states his wife Martha as inheritor) I also have a settlement certificate from 20 Mar 1741 when the family moved from Norwich St Augustine's to Trouse Newton Norfolk, in that document two other sons that I have yet to find baptisms for Phillip and James Hovey are listed (There was a James Hovey in the examination of Invalid soldiers in 28 Jul 1761 listed as "born at norwich and a weaver" age 32 and 10 months?). I wonder what happened to the Jude Hovey baptised in 1754? it's nerve wrecking!

Armed Forces / Jude Hovey 1st Foot Guards (Grenadier Guards) 1754-1765

I have records of him in the examination of Invalid Soldiers (17th October, 1765) where it says he was born at norwich and that he was 35. This is what confuses me is that the only Jude Hovey born around that time married a Mary Tooley and had 2 childern baptised from 1756-1761 he also had a son Jude Jnr Baptised in 1 Sep 1754 and later another Jude Jnr baptised in 22 Feb 1767 (No death record for the first Jude!).
I have Jude Snrs burial record that lists his wife Mary Tooley and that he died in the parish of Heigham, Norwich (where Jude Jnr 1754 was baptised and where Jude Jnr 1767 lived and died).
Hovey is a fairly rare surname and it seems to me to be the same person. Can anyone tell where the 1st foot guards where located around this time or if I have the wrong person?
