Wivenhoe Lookup - Gridley/Gredley
« on: Thursday 01 November 07 12:35 GMT (UK) »
Could anybody please help with a Wivenhoe Parish Record lookup. I am looking to confirm the following :

Marriage
James Godfrey Gridley to Mary Unknown abt 1800

Births
John Gridley abt 1800
James Gridley abt 1802
Henry Gridley abt 1805
Edward Gridley abt 1812
William Gridley abt 1814
Harriet Gridley abt 1819

If anyone is able to supply more details to the above or any additional records (there seems to be  a gap in the birth records) I would be very grateful.
Thanks

Thanks very much for the latest info, I'm still looking for any information on this Gridley family, so if you can help further that would be great. It looks as though James may have been married twice, maybe that explains the break in births.
Is there any indication that Ann died between 1804 and 1812, and that James married again to Mary at any time.

Thanks again for your help

William and Edward i have seen bap register that confirms they are both from james and Ann.
That gets you to 1814 with absolutely no sign of an Mary at all. Please can you advise where MAry is fitting in , this may help me. Where is her name in a census doc ? If allowed send me the piece of census for me to look at .
So positive id on Ann and none for Mary.
MAssive bonus ~ if this is your family , I have seen a burial for Henry aged 68 in 1810 wivenhoe. I could follow this up at some point , but i need to know that this is your family as it all takes time .

Hi Sid thanks once again for your help, the only reason I have included Mary is that she is shown as wife to James Gredley in Wivenhoe in both the 1841 and 1851 census, this could of course be a different James altogether. I recently searched the Seax and came across a will for James Gridley of Wivenhoe 1851 but I could'nt order it online as it requires CARN ticket and I don't have one and as I live in Yorkshire I can't visit the Essex office. Maybe one day I will be able to visit and get a copy to see if any children are mentioned, that way I will know for sure if I have the right James. I can at least now change my records to show the correct mother of the children.
Thanks once again

I have found a bap for John William attributted to James and Mary , the surname on the doc looks a bit vague but could pass for Gredley , just. I have also located Baps For James and Ann Gridleys children Edward 1810 james 1807, Henry 1804  and Mary 1802

I cannot piece the two together for you.
Sorry
Sid
