Although there were other POSEYs in England at that time, I see only one at Threadneedle: The christening of Estienne POSEY took place at Threadneedle church on 28 Feb 1630. His parents were listed as Martin POSEY and Marye BRY. This is taken from the *extracted records* (not those submitted by the public) on the online IGI. As always, it would need to be verified, but the controlled extraction program has a high degree of professionalism and can usually be trusted. The specific film/fiche number is below (taken from a book of printed church records). The christening of a Marie POSSET, daughter of Martin POSSET, took place on 13 May 1632. No mother was listed. The christening of a Francoise POSSE, son of Martin POSSE and Julliene BLOUCKLIE took place on 19 Jan 1640. If this is the same Martin with a new wife, then that makes three different spellings to check for POSEY. I saw no trace of the oft-mentioned POSCHET spelling. The source is given as follows: Title: Computer printout of London, Threadneedle Street French Huguenot, Lond., Eng (extracted for the controlled extraction program and published by the Genealogical Dept. of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) Notes: Batch nos. 04903-1, 2. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Extracted from microfilm copies of church record transcripts on film nos. 0962135 it. 1 (v. 9), 0962166 it. 1 (v. 13), 0962166 it. 4 (v. 16), 0962139 it. 1 (v. 23) or book no. 942.1/L1 B4h v. 9, 13, 16, 23. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Located in the parish of St. Bartholomew by the Exchange.
