Sheasby

[popkiwi]

I am searching for my Sheasby Family from Long Itchington, Warwickshire. I have gone back to Samuel Sheasby born about 1780 who Mary Unknown and had four children, John 1807, Sarah 1814, George 1815 and Ann 1817.
My descendancy is through George who married Sophia Clause and had a son Thomas in 1843. He married Hannah french and they immigrated to New Zealand.
Any info would be appreciated - Evan Bennett

there is a Mary on census -who is a possible for mother -she is with son John -in Long itchington - but born Northampton.

She is a widow at the time of 1841 census -and lived until her mid eighties

Do you have that information??

Hi - No, I don't have that info and it does sound interesting. I am from NZ, not sure how far Northampton is from Warwick, but I know they moved around for various reasons.
It will be interesting to see if John might be Samuels brother.

Hi again - I don't have a birth place for Samuel so there is always a chance he was born in Northampton.

[popkiwi]

Hi - Sorry, I meant to say the John would be Samuels son.  I have no record of Samuels death so it is possible that this is the correct Mary

[popkiwi]

The Mary I have was born in 1778 in Preston Gafey, Northamptonshire and died in 1867, about 88 yrs old - this sounds very much like her.
