Gloucestershire Surname Interests

[Arranroots]

This might be a good moment to remind everyone to enter the surnames they are researching into the Surname Interest Table (SIT).

The SIT enables you to check whether any Rootschatter is searching for the same names as you and you can refine your search down to county level - let's see if we can make Gloucestershire the county with the best coverage!!

I am looking for Fawkes families from Bisley.
My 3x great grandfather Peter Fawkes, a stone mason, was born in Bisley, 1812.
He had a brother and two sisters: Isaac b. 1815, Esther b. 1830 and Ruth b. 1833.
His parents were Richard b. abt. 1780 d. 1840 who married Esther Ridler.
Richard had one brother, William.
Richard's father's name was William.
By 1861 Peter's family had moved to Camberwell, Surrey, but there is no trace of Peter.
Peter's brother Isaac was a woollen draper and lived in London for most of his working life, but after his retirement and wife's death, he moved back to Bisley, married again and had two more children.
