FEWELL Family

[Susie1]

Hi Kath
I got the baptism records on fiche but some of them are really bad, you just can't read them.  So I think I'm about as far back as I am able to go. A William Crow and Ann Bilsby married in 1795.  He was from Cranham and she was from Upminster. But the records for the time he would have been born are just unreadable.  So that's it.
I was lucky that there was only one Crow family in Cranham at that time, so no confusion as to who belonged to who.

There is a Church in Cranham ( All Saints) let me know if in the future you want me to trapse the graveyard, it's no problem x

Upminster on the other hand as several churches i believe but the oldest i think is St Laurence

Anyway the offers there mate xx

Hi Kath
If you ever find yourself at a loose end one nice sunny day, and you fancy a walk round Cranham, that would be great, Thank you.  Although I doubt very much if there are any gravestones left, I know there wasn't any when we came down and looked for the Fewells in Gt Canfield.
Thanks
Sue

Hi Kath,
Thanks for that list of submitters, I'll add that list to the other info you sent, I might just try again later with another person.  I'll check them out in the American white pages first, it also gives their ages, don't want to send to anyone too elderly, just in case.  Stanford is 66 so there was a good chance he had all his faculties and could stay alive long enough to answer my query.

By the way my definition of "too elderly" is anyone two or more years older than myself 

Regards.

Hi Kath .....

Just got back from sunny Sweden (it was too - about 22 hours a day !) - wonderful place.

Anyway, I'll get working ion the microfiche records for you.  Strangely perhaps, I've never compiled a detailed list of the Fewells listed therein.  That said, they only really appear for about 100 years and by the early 1900s that's it, they've all gone.

Thanks too for the personal message - got it fine and will send a well crafted letter some time later this week.

Any sign of the PRs you ordered a while back ?  Can't wait for you to get them !  I've always had a hunch that we are going to have to check every set of records from any/all parishes within 5 (or even 10) miles of G Waltham to track down William Fewell / Fuell (born circa 1730).  Don't know why I think this - sods law maybe - or the fact that many people (including Walter Mills and my brother) have tended to concentrate - quite naturally - on the few parishes referenced in William's records.

Got to go .....

Aye

Hi trev

Glad you had a nice time

I have ordered the fich but going to take up to 6 weeks to get to me and i ordered them on the 5th June so will be mid july i suppose before i get them,

I will of course let you all know as soon as they arrive, it may infact be sooner than the 6 weeks but not holding my breath haha

Anyway let me know how the letter gets on mate and i'll keep everything crossed in hope of a reply.
