I have the following information. from a wedding certificate. My GGrandfather Henry Hancock married Esther Hammersley on 2nd April 1882. Esthers father Robert Hammersley occup Coalminer Her mother maiden name was Esther Randall Henrys father was Thomas Hancock occ Labourer. They were married in the Registers Office in the district of Foleshill, Warwick. They both lived in Leicester Street, Bedworth at the time of Marriage. I am looking for the births of Henry Hancock and his wife Esther Hammersley. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Bill

N.B. HANCOCK was also spelled HANCOX. Have just had a look at I.G.I. and realised the alternative spelling. Do you know where he was on 1881 Census which should give you his birthplace and, if you are lucky, his relations?

The I.G.I. reference that I quoted earlier about Esther HAMMERSLEY looks like a probable for her 1863 birth & christening in Bedworth. There is a "FreeBMD" entry that confirms her birth in June Q 1863. If you order that certificate you will have her parents names. Henry HANCOCK is a more common name so we would need the father's name from his Marriage Certificate to sort him out from the several Henry HANCOCK births.

This would fit with the I.G.I. record that Esther HAMMERSLEY was born and christened in Bedworth in 1863. Bedworth was in Foleshill Reg Dist. from 1837-1932.

My GGrandfather Henry Hancock married Esther Hammersley (father Robert Hammersley mother Esther Randall ) on 2nd April 1882. If anyone can help with information on this it would be greatly appreciated. Regards Bill Hancock

I fully realize that my original question was, if not off topic, then a little out of (geographical) bounds for some of the Lists that I mailed to, but the response has been truly amazing, I even got an e-mail from the President of the Australian Huguenot Society, so my special thanks to whoever it was who forwarded my query to him. I've sent a personal reply to many who wrote to me- but the number keeps growing !!! So I hope those who haven't heard directly from me will accept a group 'Thank You'.

Vicki I have Hammersleys in Bedworth back to the early 1700s so I think it likely that your Henry was from the close neighbourhood.

Hi all, it's been quite some time since my last post but I been watching from the wings and pleased to see that the list is still busy. I thought i'd re-post interests. I have hit a 'brickwall' - my earliest direct ancestor is Joshua GLOVER d.1786. He was a Birmingham Hardware Merchant (he sold Birmingham wares like buckles, buttons, knives on the Continent) and was also an Ironmaster in Wales, a High Bailiff of the Manor of Birmingham, and a Mine adventurer (a shareholder in today's parlance) in Cornwall. He married 1.Anne Stanton and 2. Sarah Tyler and when not at the Ironworks at Abercarne in Monmouth he lived at Key Hill House in Hockley. The land were the house stood was quarried away in the mid to late 1800's it actually stood within what is now the Key Hill Cemetery. I reckon he was from a moneyed family but i cannot find his baptism in published Midlands parish registers or connect him via extensive Wills research with any of the prominent GLOVER families of the day some of whom were in the Iron business. For years I've been 'mining' the substantial collection of my family's papers in the Birmingham Archive but they don't go back beyond 1770's. So now i'm pursuing the notion that he might not be an out of towner (ie from London or Yorkshire) but might be of the GLOVER's of Mancetter and Baxterly of whom the most famous member is Robert GLOVER the protestant martyr. Has anyone researched this family or knows of a pedigree that shows this family beyond 1700's. I'd most grateful for any assistance or advice. Robert GLOVER ....

Hi Vicki Just for clarification; the marriage of Henry Hammersley to Sarah Butcher took place, after Banns, at All Saints church, Bedworth, not the Independent Chapel...

Henry Hammersley was born around 1761. He married to Sarah Butcher 17 July 1785 in Bedworth Independent Chapel and they had 4 children, Hannah b1787, Martha b1789, Henry b1796, Diana aka Dinah 1798. This is according to Bedworth parish records and the 1821 Census. Henry was a silk weaver, so I believe his father or parents probably were also. Henry died January 1824 in Bedworth. Does anyone have suggestions where I might start looking for Henry's parents? Any suggestions are very welcome as the possibilities are daunting! Huguenot connection through Spitalfields is a possibility, but that's only a guess, and how would I know how/where to look for that connection? Thanks in advance, Vicki D.

Sorry to contradict, but if Boojac means that the Huguenot community does not exist in Germany, that is wrong. Over 40,000 Huguenots settled in Prussia alone, mostly in and around Berlin, and they also took refuge in other Protestant German States. This was, of course, in the days when Germany did not exist as such, but was a collection of many separate states.

A possible variant of the Walloon name "Plesser" is given as "Plester", an earlier spelling of the Dutch word "pleister" (plaster) and thus a plasterer. If Banbury local historians do not know about Huguenot connections in the town, then the Huguenot Society library may be able to help you. You can e-mail them at [email protected] This doesn't really fall under Warwickshire genealogy however! MAR in France.
