(Only shows up when you do a search without adding a county) There are several other baptisms in the area for a couple of that name, two of which also have the name Morgan as a middle name. Have you seen the actual images for the marriages of Phoebe Davis/Westley? The one where she marries Thomas Westley the witnesses are David Davis and what looks to me as if it could be Sarah Westley but spelled as Wesley or Westey. There is a baptism for a Thomas Westley c 6 Jun 1790 St Katherine by the Tower London s/o John Westley and Elizabeth but I couldn't find that they had a child called Sarah so maybe not your Thomas. Although she could be the wife of a male sibling Hope this may help you regards MOIRA -----Original Message----- From: Steve Westley Sent: Sunday, July 03, 2011 12:25 AM To: BERKSHIRE@rootsweb.com Subject: [BRK] WESTLEY, Thomas & Phoebe Good morning listers My name is Stephen Westley and I am searching for information on my Great, Great Grandparents. I believe that they may have been transient workers, as I am finding it very hard to fill in the gaps in their lives. Thomas Westley & Phoebe Davis were married on the 23 January 1821 at St Leonards, Shoreditch, London, Middlesex. Originally, I thought that they were "natives" of London, but after considerable searching and professional research, I can still find no sign of them until 20 February 1833 when their so called youngest son William was baptised at St Marys, Islington. He was 1 month old when baptised and may have been born in another county, although his parent's address was listed as Payne Street. At the age of 16, William migrated to New Zealand, so I have quite a lot of information on his life, however Thomas and Phoebe once again managed to disappear. I have since learned that Phoebe was married to Isaac Webster on 19 April 1852 at St Pancras Parish Church so Thomas must have died prior to this date. Maybe a family from this list has a Thomas and Phoebe Westley that were not married in the area but who have children born in the parish or elsewhere. I have already placed this notice in Kent, Surrey, and Hertfordshire lists with a limited amount of success, but a lot of helpful advice. I look forward to hearing from a cousin!!!
