Fidgeon/Waskett search
« on: Saturday 25 August 12 18:01 BST (UK) »
I am researching the family on my father's side with the surname of Fidgeon - living in the Essex area and have been there as far as I can tell for a while.

I have got as far back as 1803 - Israel Fidgeon - married to a Mariah Wombwell - 4 children - one of which, James was my great great great grandfather.
His son Thomas was my great x 2 grandfather and his son Henry James was my great grandfather, Henry's siblings were: William Walter, Florence Sarah, Eliza Mariah and Thomas Frederick

There are many families by the name of Fidgeon living in Essex at this time, they all seem to have come from the same line - Israel being the head. Of course he was also born at some time and I can't find his roots.

His son Israel was also a beer house keeper in Rayleigh - of a well-known pub at the time the elephant and castle (now does not exist) married to Emily

If anyone has any info or may be a distant relative, I'd love to hear from you!

I'm also researching my mother's side which is waskett - William specifically- living in East London - Stratford and East Ham area haven't got much of a lead at the moment but if anyone could help I would be grateful
