If anyone is doing or has done research on the Merrick/Meyrick families of Herefordshire, I'd be delighted to share information. My great-grandfather Arnold Garbett Merrick (baptised Kingstone, 1804) changed the spelling of his name to Meyrick. I believe he had a brother called Thomas and a sister called Charlotte. They were the children of Arnold Merrick and Margaret Baugh; Arnold's parents were John and Susannah, and John's parents were Aristarchus (baptised 1710, Thruxton) and Mary. The family seems to have had connections with Madley, Kings Caple, Much Dewchurch and Allesmore. Aristarchus was the son of Walter Merrick of Aymestrey (baptised 1668) and Mary Pye, daughter of John Pye. I know more, so do get in touch!
