Longney Burials for GRACELAND
« on: Thursday 04 May 06 11:37 BST (UK) »
Hi Mr G, ;D

thank you for all your recent help. ;D I'm about to return the favour. ;D

I've had a look at the grave inscriptions you found in Longney Churchyard for George H Meadows and his wife Alice.  I'll have to take you back another generation to explain who they are. The top of your Meadows tree shows John Meadows c1789 - the father of your Jesse Meadows. Here are John's parents and siblings -

Thomas Meadows & Sarah

Christenings at Longney

Joseph Meadows        20th Feb 1780  ***
Mary Meadows             5th Jan 1783
George Meadows,        1st March 1784
Sarah Meadows           25th Sept 1785
William Meadows         17th June 1787
John Meadows             21st June 1789
Samuel Meadows        20th June 1790
Deborah Meadows        7th April 1793
Susanna Meadows      26th July 1795
Daniel Meadows          13th May 1798

It's Joseph we are interested in.......

Hi Mr G ;D

that was a very long answer to a short question. ;D The grave in Longney Churchyard is your Meadows family.

George H Meadow's father Charles and your Jesse Meadows were cousins.

Hi Graceland,

the John Meadows you found in Moreton Valence Churchyard and Eli Meadows, aged 22 years, buried at Longney  are from the same family. John's father was Eli's brother. I am sure they are your Meadows but you will need to check at the records office for the missing link. There are a lot of Meadows in Longney, they all lived close to one another and the same names occur in every family. 

Christening at Longney

James Meadows 23rd May 1802
Mother: Hester Meadows ( the missing link)

Marriage at Longney 26th Sept 1833
James Meadows
Sarah Smith

Edmund Meadows                 14th Jan 1844
Eli Meadows                             5th Feb 1848
