Hi Leggy,
My Hessey (Hissey) line is currently back to a George Hessey born c.1775 in Ramsbury Wilts. I am struggling to find any parents/siblings for him - so it may well be that his family came from further afield in the Berks area, I know there were alot of Hessey/Hissey families in Buttermere and Beenham for example.
How far back is your line? Do you have a George that goes missing?
Please feel free to look at my tree online and do let me know if you think there might be a connection.
Regards
Simone.
