Timothy Dewis 1786
« on: Sunday 26 June 22 10:07 BST (UK) »
I am trying to trace my maternal ancestry and have managed to get back as far as Timothy Dewis born 1786 , I believe in Foleshill, Bedworth, Warwickshire. He was married to Patience Haywood, but she died in 1827 and thereafter he married Catherine Mallabone on 25.04.1827. We know he was a Silk ribbon weaver Timothy died on 8th May 1853 in Foleshill. He had a son called Edward who married Hannah Hackett.
Try as I might I cannot get any further back from Timothy.
I know that Bedeorth churchyard is full of the graves of Dewis folks and appreciate the waters may be muddy but does anyone have records back from our Tim??

When Timothy married Patience he was a widower, so the CADE marriage looks likely.
His parish is recorded as Bedworth.

Thank you .Mary Cade showed up in other searches so that now makes more sense than Patience. Shame I can't find Timothy mum and dad but we think it might have been Edward.?.
They were hugeunot by descent and I believe the silk ribbon weavers came mostly from Normandy?

Dewis is not such a common name, but it may have been spelled other ways.

I note there is a a James DEWIS born in 1770 Coventry to Thomas and Susannah.
