Completed My Visit to Cambridgeshire County Record Office - will do simple Look-ups

[Dale]

I have a feeling that you will regret offering to help! But I am really curious, as there is a possibility that you might unearth the very link, for which I am searching,  that will unite my Faireys with another Fairey family to which at present I have no connection!
of course it would help no end if they had a bit more originality when thinking of Given names! And I haven't given you half of it!
Best of British!
Sincerely
Marlene

Kia Ora, Marlene,
Here beginneth the second lesson on the FAIRY's of Gt. Catworth from the 1679-1852 transcripts...
Baptisms: 01-11-1723: Seth FEARY s. of Will.
08-05-1724: Benjamin FEARY s. of Thomas and Eliz.
19-05-1776: William FAIRY s. of Sarah
05-07-1812: William FAIRY s. of Thomas and Mary (born 05-02-1812)
03-07-1814: Mariann FAIREY d. of Thomas and Sarah
02-07-1815: Eliza FAIRY d. Thomas and Sarah
05-07-1818: Charlotte FAIRY d. of Thomas and Sarah
30-06-1822: Joseph FAIRY s. of Thomas and Sarah
05-03-1824: Jane FAIRY d. of Thomas and Sarah
02-07-1826: George FAIRY s. of Thomas and Sarah
05-07-1827: Charles FAIRY s. of Thomas and Sarah
05-07-1829: Phebe FAIRY d. of Thomas and Sarah...

Getting a bit cross-eyed now, what with this family's mania for baptising their children in July, particularly 5th July.  By the way, father Thomas FAIRY's occupation throughout was given as "labourer".  Going to have something to eat now, then I'll finish these FAIRY's off by PM...  Phebe Fairy, indeed...!
Very best wishes,
Keith

Do you remember the conservative member of parliament who was murdered by Irish terrorists - Airey Neave? He was fortunate that he wasn't part of Marlene's lot otherwise his name might have been..........!

[Dale]

He probably WAS as a politician! Enough jokes while I am going in Fairy circles, brain afluttering and eyes going sideways! Thankfully soon I will take my place atop your  tree and will tell everyone what you got for Xmas!

Marlene,
There will undoubtedly be more generations of FAIRY's in the Gt. Catworth 1850's-present-day registers, but I'm sure you've got enough to be going on with for now!

Kia Ora Keith
May I whisper in your ear? Y'know the dreaded Bedfordshire fellow who makes jokes about my Airey Faireys?
PSSSSSSTT.. he's probably related!!
Wonder if he knows a Fairey Bride married a Stapleton Groom?  And their daughter became an Australian! (May she be forgiven!)
Catch you apopo (tomorrow) - tonight there's a very important game in Wales! Have to get some sleep before the haka!

[Keith Sherwood]

Marlene,
I'm definitely avoiding the FAIRY's for a while, particularly in Stapleford (where, thinking of winged creatures, the landlady of our shared house in Cambridge - years ago now - used to live: she was a Mrs Dove...)
Strange too for you to be talking about watching the Wales v All Blacks game at night, while we watch it simultaneously, but hopefully in the autumn sunshine.
I'm going to predict an All Black victory, but by less than 10 points...
Keith

Thank goodness your look ups are more accurate than your rugby predictions Keith! But at least Wales came second.

And I do have a Farey in my tree, Marlene, although, as you may have guessed, not direct line. This was Sarah (Sarey) Farey from Woburn Beds.

I am beaming in Spring sunshine - not bad for a practice run before the Irish, eh what chaps?
I haven't spread my Fairy wings to Woburn as yet so you're safe - temporarily!
Sprucing my wand up for another flutter next week!
Marlene
