HI there

I am very interested in the various Bouchers that resided
in Wolverley from 1700s to late 1800's.

Any information would be gratefully received and equally
given out should anyone be interested in what I'm looking
at.

Other surnames of interest: Waldron, Lea, Grove, Butcher,
Bourchier

Thanks

I was very excited to see Grove and Boucher in your Query.  This is what I have - unfortunately, Wiltshire and Somerset is more our tree. 

Eleanor Grove of Southampton (died 1778) m Joseph Crabb (b 1706) of Tellisford, Somerset.  Their son James (b 1748) married Arabella Sarah Grove Boucher, dau of Richard Boucher of Corsham, Wilts, (b 1755) m 1777, and died 1791 in London "as a result of being struck on the head by a flowerpot which fell from a third storey window". Gentleman's Magazine

Her brother William Grove of Islington Essex,  also died 1778.  Other sisters Ann Grove and Elizabeth Grove.

Sarah Grove (possibly a cousin of Eleanor?) married Richard Boucher (b 1730), was Land Steward to Paul Methuen Esq of Corsham Court, co. Wilts.  Their daughter is the Arabella Sarah Grove Boucher referred to above.  Their son, Richard Boucher of Marlborough Mount Jamaica, left a fortune to James George Crabb, his nephew, provided he assumed the name of Boucher, and did so by Royal Licence 1837.

Enough for now, especially if none of this relates to your search?  The Boucher side of the tree is more sparse, William Boucher d 1676 - m Margaret Kent, his son William Bouchier (d 1687) married Arabella Pett, their son William d 1770 married Dolly dau of Thos Frome of Salisbury, they had 5 daughters. His 2nd wife Agnes dau of ? Clerke produced a son William, JP for Wilts and Dorset b 1753, d 1835, was governor of Gen Hosp at Bath and Magdalen Hosp in London.

Bye for now - hope we're related!

Hi Martin

Re Waldrons - my GG Grandfather Walter James Phillips married a Mary Ann Waldron on Xmas day 1867 at St Pauls Worcester. Her father is named as Thomas Waldron, Boatman.

In the 1871 census, Walter and Mary are living at 13 Meadow Row, St Peters, Worcester with their son Thomas Phillips (2) & Mary's parents Thomas and Louisa Waldron. However, I do not believe that Louisa was Mary Ann's mother - waiting for her birth certificate to come through at the moment to confirm if her mother was Ann Rutter or Margaret Boucher!

Thomas Waldron is a bit of an elusive character - waiting to start researching his line once I have established who his first wife is but he states he was born in Worcester (great help) c1821. I believe he died JunQ 1877.

Ring any bells?

Parents = Thomas Waldron 2 (also Riverman) & Mary?

Thomas Waldron 2 christened 11 Oct 1795 Ribbesford, Worcester

Siblings = Hannah 1789, Ann 1791, Mary Ann 1793, Thomas 1795, James 1898, Elizabeth 1804 (poss. Maria 1808)

Parents of Thomas Waldron 2 = Thomas Waldron 3 & Phoebe Dukes or Dux

Wading my way through the rest. If any of these connect let me know. 

Now also confirmed no connection with Bouchers

Just found out after years of searching that my William Boucher who lived in Elmely Lovetts family are from Wolverley. So may find a lot of the above info ties in with my tree.
