Yesterday morning before I was properly awake I read and deleted the original post on the Gloucester list regarding Mayshill and the replies from Ed TILY and cousin Marily MOFFAT. Then it was off to the village of Hawkesbury to update photographs of various graves and MI's with a couple of members of the Hawkesbury mailing list. One of the graves at St Mary's Hawkesbury is that of Hannah Maria THOMPSON died 9th June 1914 aged 68 beloved wife of Charles THOMPSON. This Charles and Hannah Maria THOMPSON are likely to be the couple listed on the 1881 census as living at Mayshill, Westerleigh. According to the census Charles is born Thornbury and Hannah Maria in Yate. The question for me and other Hawkesbury THOMPSON researchers is why is Hannah Maria buried at Hawkesbury alongside the Hawkesbury THOMPSONs ? Who were the parents of Hannah Maria and Charles. Do Charles or Hannah Maria belong to anybody on the list ? Geoffro The Pond Dipper http://www.HawkesburyFamilyHistory.co.uk
