Baylis Family.

[Humphpaul]

Dear Kells, thanks for the hint. I have a message on the CUM pages. I have traced all my Baylis related family in Liverpool but there were some Baylis's there already before mine got there in 1840 or so. There was a chemist and a milliner in the directories if I remember rightly.
The name Baylis did not continue in L'pool as it was my g.grandma who married a James Paul but Baylis was used as a middle name by the family for some sons and daughters for three generations at least. Bye Alan

Hi Keith.
I believe that Benjamin Baylis was my 5 x great grandfather. His son, Francis eventually took over the grocer's shop in Red Lion Street. Francis was a carpenter by trade and his son, Francis Augustus, was my great grandfather. My grandfather, George Frederick, died in 1927, so I never met him. His son, Eric, born in 1914, was my father.
Benjamin's wife was Georgianna Angelina (maiden name Harrington) born in Devonport. I believe that Benjamin was born in September 1912 in Studley and his mother's name was Ann. That's as far back as I have been able to go as yet. If you manage to get a photo of the shop in Red Lion Street, please let me know. I'd also be interested to know how your friend Martyn is related to Benjamin.
Regards
Gary

I have the BAYLIS family tree from myself way back to John Baylis 1709 marr Elizabeth Chambers, 30 Dec 1731, she came from BIDFORD-ON-AVON, WARWICKSHIRE.
for anyone connected to Benjamin Bayliss b.1812 marr. Georgiana Angelina Orange Collins Harrington, yes they did have a shop in Red Lion Stree, Redditch, Worc., and Francis their son took over the shop when Benjamin died.
dau of Francis, (Florence Elizabeth Baylis) was my grandmother.
Anyone interested please contact.

Hi Marlene
Very interested to read your info regarding Benjamin Baylis and to see that you are descended from Francis's daughter, Florence. The only mention of Florence I've found is the 1880 Census record at Beoley Road and this gives her age as 24, but I can't see her mentioned in the 1871 Census record at Unicorn Hill, when she would supposedly be 14.  I'd be particularly interested to know more about the Baylis family generations preceding Benjamin if you can let me have any more details.

Gary,
Have just written to you but seem to have lost it before I sent it so here goes again:- My grandmother Florence Hemming (Baylis) b.1876 Redditch, d.1966 Redditch, her father was George Frederick Baylis b.18th Apr 1858, Redditch,
I think he was born in Ipsley, m Amelia Mary Chandler, his father Francis b.5 Mar 1834 Redditch, m Elizabeth (1) Ann Newel (2) his father Benjamin b.1812 Redditch. d/20 Apr 1888, m Georgiana Angelina Orange Collins Harrington b.1816,d.17 Oct 1887, m.18 Feb.1833. his mother Ann Baylis b.22 May 1791, d. 20thJun 1819, St. Stephens, Redditch. her father Francis b.1754,d.20 Jan1820 St. Stephens, Redditch, m. 14 Oct 1771 Alcester. Sarah Owen, Alcester. his father John b.1709, m. Elizabeth Chambers Bidford-on-Avon, on 30 Dec 1731.
Hop this is of use and if you come across anything else please let me know as this is as far as I have had time to get to at the moment due to other commitments.
Please let me know how this fits in with yours I have got most of this Baylis tree and there are a lot of people still about.

01Ivan - Have you established parents for John (1709) in Bidford yet?
I have established a bit of Bidford family tree since my last post, but also noted that a small number of BAYLISS are in the town (some come and go) who don't appear to be a part of the long-established (my) family from the early C17th.

Hi Marlene
I think your G-father George Frederick was perhaps the younger brother of my GG-father, Francis Augustus. 1871 Census has your George Frederick, aged 14 (i.e. born ca. 1857-58) living Unicorn Hill with parents Francis 38 and Ann 38. Francis Augustus married Mary Ann Moberley 1871 and my G-father George Frederick born 1873.
Been to Warwick Records today. Parish register shows birth Benjamin as 02 Sept 1812 and baptism 06 Sept 1812, but listed as illegitimate son of Ann Baylis. How did you trace Ann's ancestors to Redditch and back to Bidford?

GaryYes my G-father George Frederick was the younger brother of Francis Agustus, (he married twice) (1) Mary Ann Mobberley & Mary Hatton.As it was about 15years ago that I got so far back there was really only the IGI, I will try and go through it all again this weekend now things have quietened down a little.George Frederick b.1853-1854, Francis Agustus 1855, Ann Elizabeth Florence 1856, George Frederick 1858, James Benjamin 1860, John 1862, Thomas William, 1864, Frederick Alfred Collins 1867, Victor 1869, Edgar 1872, Edith Lusiana 1876,Frank Joseph 1878. You can see why I have not investigated all the family 12 in that generation.  11 in Florence Elizabeth`s my grandmother`s generation.Marlene

A cousin of my mothers copied all the Baylis bap.marr.& deaths from the Mormon Library at Crabbs Cross, Redditch, when it was open, it has been closed for a good many years now, but I am working on it.
