Jane Witchell 25.Dec.1854 in Bristol St Andrews Clifton Unfortunately there are two sets of Charles/Jane Fisher on 1881... one a tailor another a wine merchant !!! Do you have the name of the father of Frederick Fisher by any chance? The Morse line also runs through another branch of the Witchells . I have Dangerfield in my own line who lived in Goodrich in the Ross area.... William Dangerfield senior came over from S. Glos. Unfortunately I have not researched these throughly so sadly I am not going to be of much use. If you possibly had time I would be very interested in any Dangerfield information that you might have on Rosetta and Joseph. They just might connect with our lot along the way. The William Dangerfield I am looking at was born Frampton on Severn 1815/16 and seems to have lived close to another family of Dangerfields just outside Monmouth who were b. Stroud and are found in Coaley later on in 1881 census. Kind regards, Patsy Witchell > Hi, > > Is anyone else researching these families? > > > James ALLEN m.

Hi. I'm researching an Allen family in Wotton Under Edge - William Allen baptised as an adult 1817 - parents Daniel and Mary. Any help to you? I find them rather elusive and always hope someone is researching the same family.

Hi, I am pleased to hear that someone is looking for Allens! I have only just found the baptism of James and the marriage of James and Mary Hicks in W-U-E (from the GFHS indexes) It is quite possible that there is a connection with the family you are researching.

I'm not sure if this message managed to get through so I repeat it. Hi Maureen, I had always believed William ALLEN to have been the son of Daniel ALLEN and Mary SMART but it had not occurred to me to think of two baptisms as suggested by Robert. This would fit in with his marriage to a lady called HANNAH, which I have never found so presumed it to have been nonconformist as he suggests. I had also thought that Daniel could be the son of William and Mary WILLIAMS married 1759 in Hawkesbury but these are only guesses in the absence of anything else although Daniel and William are both my Allen family names. In an earlier comment to me Robert said he thought the William ALLEN buried in Hawkesbury 1st Jan 1788 could be from Corsham but I haven't been able to follow this up but did find a baptism of William ALLEN 6 June, 1790 at WOOTTON U EDGE (Kingswood) although it appears under Wiltshire in the IGI! Are there two? There was also a William ALLEN who married Mary HAYWARD and had a son James but Robert didn't mention dates.. I know nothing of Harts and Hicks. Regards.
