Fiddaman Family of Brancaster
« on: Thursday 22 October 09 20:59 BST (UK) »
I am looking for any information on the Fiddaman family of Brancaster.
I have from the 1851 Census a Thomas Fiddaman-Rat Catcher, his wife Elizabeth and their family. I have a baptism at St.Mary's Church, Brancaster, Frances Fiddaman, 13th April 1828. Father Thomas (Labourer) mother Elizabeth. I also have baptisms for two other sons-Thomas Burton Fiddaman and John Fiddaman baptized at the same church.

Hello Gelert,

I don't know if you've seen it, but an 1841 census for Thomas Fiddaman of Brancaster seems to clinch the marriage that Yokel found.

Living with Thomas and Elizabeth is a Lydia Pearson, aged 76, who could well be Elizabeth's mother.....

Would you like the details, or do you already have them?

Hi
 I have some connection with another part of the Fiddaman line that settled into Brancaster (Mary Lewis Fiddaman, - daughter of Robert Fiddaman & Elizabeth Lewis, & grand daughter of John Fiddaman & Rose Burton-, who married Ambrose Orbell, & whose daughter Mary Orbell married a cousin Ambrose Fiddaman in Brancaster).
The FreeReg website gives Brancaster baptism details for children of Thomas Fiddaman b 1775 & Ellen Lennard - Maria b 1807, William b 1810, Jemima b 1816, & John Large b 1818, so it looks as if his family with Elizabeth Pearson was his second.
