Nice to hear from you and I trust your search is going well.  Please post those new Vickress Hereford documents to the Vickress web site or email them to me. 

 The James Vickress born in 1787 and baptized in 1795 is not my guy.  I thought he was but other evidence supplied by others proved that to my satisfaction.   Hence I am still stumped on how to get by this roadblock.  Any suggestions would be appreciated as I have given up on this for now.

On my mothers side I am back to before 1066 into France with some proof.  Church records back to 1600 approx., then books, land records, visitation books, and documented family trees.  Mom at least came from money and some minor titleage. It seems incredible and who knows if it true.  I am sure that those writing these family trees always wanted to confirm their roots to the King.  But for now I believe I am related to King Henry I.  Is that cool or what.  Evidence is posted to the Vickress web site.

I also found that death record and I keep it along with a bunch of misc. records that do not match any other record.  So my assumption to date is this is mispelt and should be Vickers. 

Perhaps that's a possible father,,, good thought.

As for the 1851 its on the page before his son james Vickress (spelt correctly).  My his father is recorded as James Vichughe (at least on ancestry)

Gotta run,,,

Okay all you bright genealogists, let's see if you can figure this out, or point me in the right direction.  James Vickress is my oldest realive that I have been able to trace.  Then the Vickress name goes dead.  My callenge is that I can't find his birth.  He was married to Ann Hulseberg in 1815 and is listed in the 1841 census (age 50)  as per below and in the 1851 census (age 56).  He dies in 1852 (age 62) as I have his death vert and that is the man.  On the 1851 census it reports he is born in Middlesex, and I assume this means London

So my assumptoin is that he is born in London between 1790 - 1795.  No such birth can be found.  So my assumption is that the name must be variant like Vickers.  I found 2 James Vickers, one born 1878 and batprised in `1795 and another born 1793.  Further corss check proved that are not my man.

So I am stumpted.  Can anyone offer suggestion on what to try next?

Did you every find info on this James Vickress,, I just ordered the death cert last week in the hope it would confirm his age at death and match back to 1790 approx.  He is my gggggrandfather. 

If not I will have the cert in a few weeks.   I now have every Vickress who ever lived on my tree.  The only birth record i could find is a James Vickers.
