Hi Ruth I don't have access to the Gazeley registers but I see that the Bury St Edmunds branch of the Suffolk Record Office has an inventory (although apparently no will or admon) dated 1694 for a yeoman named Humphrey DYNOR of Isleham (Index of the Probate Records of the Court of the Archdeacon of Sudbury: ref. In. 9/91). David From: Ruth Dunlap <rdunlap@tsf.net> Sent: Monday, 27 December, 2010 4:59:13 I would like to confirm this marriage at Gazeley, Suffolk: 1651 (no day/month) HUMPHREY DIVER (was he from elsewhere? I hope it says he was of Isleham, Cambs. or near there) to JANE MAST (The name Diver is sometimes transcribed as Diner)

It's "Vetenarian" (or "Vetinarian") an attempt to spell "Veterinarian"; they got it right in 1851 Brian On 28/12/2010 22:49, Phil White wrote: > Hello Folks, Hope everybody had a very joyous Xmas and that some at > least brought home an ancestor. > My current problem is reading a Census sheet at Lakenheath > HO107/1027B12F12p16 for one George Pawsey, > as I cannot decipher the occupation, so I hope someone is familiar > with it > Happy New Year to all Phil White in New Hampshire USA Roots in > Sussex& IOW > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to SUFFOLK-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message >

Thank you Honor/Noreen for looking. I don't know if the 1694 marriage is the same Humphry Diver- there were several of that name and in several generations. It is hard to sort them out that early when so little identification was given in the registers. I am trying to find out if the Gazeley, Suffolk, registers of the 1651 marriage entry give a Cambridgeshire "home" for Humphrey Diver and/or Jane Mast.

Thanks, Ros, for your efforts. I have seen this line on Ancestry.com family trees, also. I look at these trees for clues, but I verify anything myself before I accept it. These trees are very often full of errors and/or guesses, and some of the tree entries are merely copied from the trees of others, thus perpetuating any errors. There is at least one error in the reference you quote that I know from my own research of the Diver family. This is why I want to find out if there is any residence given in the Diver/Mast marriage at Gazeley in 1651. It "fits," but that isn't enough. There were several Humphrey Divers in several different generations in Cambs.

Do you have any information on Thomas and Lucy's son Thomas born in 1820? My Great, Great Grandfather Joined the British army (7th Hussars)and served for 12 Years before leaving and becoming a policeman. He Married Eliza Titley in 1844 while still in the army and served several years in Ireland and perhaps Canada. He came to Australia with his wife and two children in 1857/1858 and joined the Victoria police, being stationed at Inverleigh. They had two more children there, and returned to England in 1862, before emigrating again in 1865,to Brisbane where he joined the Queensland Police, he died in 1889 and is buried at St Lawrence Queensland. His children were, Thomas Walter, Charlotte, Alice Leigh, Edward Barwon,Maria Amelia,Emma,George, and William Henry. If this Thomas is the son of Thomas Gooch and Lucy Ibrooke my search is over.

Amelia 1824, Caroline 1827, Alice 1831 (all born in Hailsham, Sussex), Harriet 1833 in Dunstable, Bedfordshire & Emma 1837 born in Walworth, Surrey." However, that was based on data from the 1841 England Census and on, so I did some further research on the FamilySearch.org site, and I found the birth record for Thomas (jnr): Thomas GOOCH birth registered with the Baptist Church, Hailsham, Suffolk on the 28 Jun 1820 - father Thomas GOOCH mother Lucy. Exactly the same data as recorded for Amelia! I'm pretty sure that this proves that Thomas GOOCH (snr) is the father to Thomas jnr and the 5 girls. And yes, Thomas GOOCH (snr) was indeed a Journeyman Brewer. Do you have the info from the 1851 Census that records your Great, Great Grandparents, Thomas and Eliza, living in 2 Martha's Buildings, Old Street, St Luke's, London? OK, so now that it has been established that they had the same parents, the only thing outstanding is to prove that Lucy's surname was indeed IBROOKE. According to FamilySearch, a marriage of a Thomas GOOCH to a Lucy did take place in St Margaret's Church, Lowestoft on the 24 Nov 1816; the only problem; is she a WALL or an IBROOKE - her surname is recorded as 'HRAH' (which I doubt is correct, but its closer to WALL than IBROOKE?). I know Pam has access to the Seventh Day Adventist Library here in Nowra, so she may be able to confirm early in the New Year. (There isn't a record in the FamilySearch site that records the birth of a Lucy WALL in Suffolk in 1795) Hope you're having a great Christmas (I'm home alone as Pam is visiting our daughter and the grandsons in Auckland) Hope to get back to you with an update soon, Bob Tyghe -------------------------------------------------- Re: Lucy IBROOKE This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

I agree with you that that the 1841 census would not necessarily include Thomas Junior because he would have been 21 years old at the time and was in the Army. I have not so far been able to find any record that links a Lucy Wall to Thomas Gooch Snr and am almost convinced that the Lucy listed in the census's up until her death was Lucy Ibrooke. To reinforce this,the Marriage certificate for thomas Junior and Eliza Titley in 1844 showed he was born in Hailsham Sussex the same as the first three girls/sisters, his father was a Brewer, and Thomas junior named two of his daughters Alice and Amelia, possibly after his sisters. I would appreciate it if you could get Pam to check the lucy Wall name with the SDA Library when she comes home, just to be sure. Unfortunately one of my uncles wives burnt all the Family Photos and historical records which had been passed down, and I don't have a lot to work with. Thanks again for your help Bob.

Hello All I hope you have all had a good Christmas Period, I seem to have missed out on the bringing them home for Christmas as I was away.
