Thank you Derek, I misread your last post....that's what happens when I get excited about new information. I have added that info to my tree. I am not on Ancestry anymore as I can't afford it now, pensions don't stretch to such luxuries these days but I would love to hear form you again if anything turns up.

I can send you an invite for the tree Ive built it may be right, Im not sure. I have the parents of Mary Hayward, and that part goes back a few generations. Not much on thomas yet However the closest match i have is son of john and sophia christened 21 May 1815 worcester or two born 1812 and 1811
kidderminster both have different parents.  Jhn and sophia i looked up. the only pair i could find were the right age and lived in worcester, but he was a surgeon ? Derek    Happy to help

Thank you so much Derek, that sounds brilliant, mind you a surgeon sounds a bit upmarket for my lot I think. It is typical that his family is elusive....it seems the Webbs always are!!!!!!

By the way just because someone in your tree is poor in the 1800s dosnt mean the family always was.
The old system of eldest inheriting the bulk of any estate, meant that the youngest usually had to make the best of what they got. Also the Webbs of Bisley ended up poor because one of them went bankrupt. Derek It is unlikley that he was the son of john the surgeon. But however being a surgeon in the 1700s didnt mean you were wealthy.

Hi Derek, thanks for all your interest. I really appreciate your help. My account with Ancestry is under the name of anitacmorris1 and my email addy is (*) I know that many of the surgeons in the 1700 were mainly barbers and not necessarily wealthy, however the Kidderminster link seems to be connected with the carpet and upholstering industry.
Thanks once again.
Regards

 Anita
