Hello, Geoff HESTER was born 1862 at Hawkesbury, parents WILLIAM (1834) and FANNY 1827 b. Kington St Nicholas, sister MARY LOUISA. HESTER was a servant at Marshfield in 1881 census and she married GEORGE soon after, or at least they started making babies. ARTHUR PERCY was first 12 Nov 1882. then Nella Elizabeth abt 1886, Alice Dec 1887 - she died and Annie Louisa b 23 Feb 1890. Arthur was listed in 1891 census at Park Lodge, Bitton which I assume to be at Park Wall, but no-one else. George's descendants are reputed to have opened the tea house in the old toll gate at Dyrham on the A46. That's all I know.
