Hi Diane Lucas LOCK came to Hawkesbury abt 1822 from Chedworth where his father Merrick or Mirack LOCK married Mary LEE 16th Apr 1821, Merrick LOCK was probably from Stolton Worcestershire where a family of LOCKs lived from early 1700's Lucas was born there 24 Oct 1813 to Merrick and Mary although we can't be sure its not and earlier wife called Mary also. Merrick and Mary baptised a daughter Temperance at Hawkesbury 20 Mar 1818 , there also seems to be a probable brother Henry who married Elizabeth they had a child Charlotte b.27 OCT 1816 in Chedworth and later Zacharias 25 Mar 1827 in Hawkesbury and probably a few more not recorded, probably the reason they came to Hawkesbury was Merrick may have had another brother and sister in law, Mathew & Memberang LOCK who baptised Isaiah on the 22 Mar 1817. it may have been during a stay with them Temperence was born. At some point Lucas meets Anne DRAPER I think its probable they lived at Hawkesbury for some time, until after daughter Clementine was born then they seem to go on the road, Lucas LOCK jnr was born in May 1848 Nr Berkley he died 2 weeks later buried at Berkley Church 9 Jun 1848, another daughter Jemima was born Dec 1850 and died 8 months later at Swanley Nr Berkley buried Berkley 6th July 1851. Meanwhile Lucas LOCKs sister Temperance b.1818 Hawkesbury has married Arnold SMITH a Tinker and Brazier from Oxford and they are living in a caravan on the roadside in Golden Valley Deerhurst on census day 1851 they have a daughter Mary Ann aged 12 and cousins Obadiah DAVIS his wife Cinderella (no doubt does the ashes) with their sons Joseph, Obadiah, daughters Mary and Maria aged 2 weeks, this must be one crowded caravan no wonder the lodger Joseph MOUR aged 40 was sleeping in the farm house. Anne DRAPER must have died during the next decade in 1871 Lucas LOCK is living in a caravan with Arnold SMITH and his wife Temperance Lucas's sister parked in a field at Parks farm Slimbridge he describes himself as a tinkers assistant what ever that is, also in the caravan is Prudence SMITH Arnolds grand daughter b, 1853 at Hawkesbury. Its known that Gypsy families congregated at certain weeks at set places I know some did at Hawkesbury but I don't know where, I don't think it was a big thing in Hawkesbury some places hundreds of families gathered and still do today horse trotting being a popular thing to do and gamble on. regards Robert Visit my web pages at http://www.hawkesburyhistory.co.uk ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marilyn Moffat" <marilyn@moffat-mk.co.uk> To: <ENG-GLO-HAWKESBURY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 12, 2005 12:54 PM Subject: [HWK] DRAPER / LOCK - Gypsy reference > My colleague Dianne - an expert on the areas around North Bucks. - has > come up with a question for me (it's usually the other way round!). > She has a line of Gypsies in her family and she has been following them > across England.

Marilyn The baptism for Clementine reads: No 80. July 4th 1845.Clementine daughter of Lucas & Annis/ LOCK DRAPER/ Hawkesbury/ Gypsy. W E RANDOLPH Curate. There is a faint line connecting Lucas to LOCK which I assume means they weren't married. If I spot any more Gypsies I'll let you know.

I would like to know if Johns father was John WEST who married Mary Crips in 1702 at Great Rissington,anything more about the WESTs would be most helpful. Thanking you From Kim

My colleague Dianne - an expert on the areas around North Bucks. - has come up with a question for me (it's usually the other way round!). She has a line of Gypsies in her family and she has been following them across England. Today she was sent this note: BTW: I was recently reviewing some Lock family stuff .

Heartfelt greetings to the new list-owner. Thank you very much for your personal details - it certainly makes us outsiders feel part of the Hawkesbury family. My own association with Hawkesbury is through the STAFFORD family and already much information has been provided by your "listers". Robert STAFFORD was born about 1797, parents William & Mary. Would love to receive verification. Mary Ann THOMPSON born circa 1798, parents Robert & Hester (GOLDING). Again, seeking verification please. This couple married 27 August 1820 and had the following children : Thomas b.c.1821 who later married Hannah HATTAWAY on 4 April 1843; Robert b.c.1821 later married Mary Ann JONES and family moved to Glamorgan and Breconshire where I have full details of them - they connect to my family line through marriage. Were Thomas & Robert twins or do I have birth years wrongly estimated? Two other children : Lot b.c.1828 who died July 1864 aged 36 - would have thought I could have found more info with such a forename!; Eliza b.c.1831 who later married Samuel THOMPSON who I have found as Baker & Grocer in the Main Street Hawkesbury in the 1891 census. Is anyone interested in the above family? Would love to make contact if there is. I do have a little bit more info to divulge .... later! Leslie Shephard Falcon, Mandurah, Western Australia.

Hi list Can anyone tell me where is Hewetts Piece. My Gran told my cousin about the lovely gardens and that it was on the road to Bath and that it was in Hawkesbury. I am coming over this year and would like to go and photograph it - my Hopkins family may have lived in it. Thanks Karen Davies Vancouver, BC

I'm sure I won't need the bat either Anne, but thought it might amuse folks as a new vision of discipline - as you see, very few folks have faith in the English ability with the willow these days!!! Cricket is a family thing with me too - and I'm not convinced it isn't because my Dad has a picture of James HULBERT complete with beard a la WG Grace - I think I must have got the 2 confused at some point :-) Marilyn ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian Maye" <bmaye@ozemail.com.au> To: <ENG-GLO-HAWKESBURY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, April 10, 2005 11:03 PM Subject: [HWK] Cricket > It seems that the cricketing skills that Marilyn has inherited were > transported with my ancestors too.

It seems that the cricketing skills that Marilyn has inherited were transported with my ancestors too. Just heard that the OZ Women have won the Womens World Cricket Cup as I was typing this. I also have a cricket bat .. had 5 brothers and 5 sisters so we had no 'twelfth man' in my family apart from my Dad who only had one arm. I am sure Marilyn will not have to wield any willow on this List. Anne.
