Colin and John Thanks for info regarding John Grigg John Grigg of Ruislip baptised July 24th 1791 at Wolverton was the 4th child of John Grigg and Ann Jacob.They were married June 5th1786 in Wolverton. With regards to the marriages which John has listed I think that he is correct,the John who is the witness to Mary Grigg's marriage is indeed John of Ruislip's father and the brother of Mary, Ann, Elizabeth and Stephen. I think that John has helped me with this before as John of Ruislip's sister Eliza married a John Bond and John of Ruislip's grandmother was an Elizabeth Bond. I am however stuck with this Mary Grigg who married John Blackman I can't find her baptism anywhere,I reckon that it would be between 1760- 1773 possibly Wolverton but maybe Kingsclere. Any help would be gratefully received.

He was apparently connected with the church in Ruislip for nearly 40 years, as parish clerk, assistant overseer and church warden; he died in 1868. I have the following Grigg entries for Kingsclere St. Mary Ann ca 1769-1827 married 26 Dec 1789 to Robert Stevens ca 1767, witnesses: Stephen & Mary Grigg. Ann born Ecchinswell Elizabeth married 28 Nov 1791 to Jeoffrey Webb, witness: Mary Grigg Mary married 16 May 1793 to John Blackman, witnesses: John Grigg and Elizabeth Webb Stephen married 9 Sep 1793 to Hannah White, witnesses: Mary Walker? & E??? Jacob? (almost unreadable). Stephen was of Wolverton. Although Ann was 'of Ecchinswell' at marriage and baptised there there seems to be a link with Stephen, Elizabeth and Mary with them being witnesses at each others weddings. The only John here, as a witness, could be the father of the John at Ruislip.
