Hi Listers I understand that Isaac HALE and Grace [WHITE], living in the Frampton Cotterell area, had two sons, Mark c 1755, and Isaac c 1757. Isaac married Patience CHARLTON and was a hatter. I believe that Mark also married and had children, but can find nothing about him. A Mark HALES married Hester EMBLIN in 1777 in Westbury on Trym, but I can find no baptisms for this couple. Mark lived only until 1784. Is there anyone with parish records for Westbury who would be kind enough to see if there are any HALE or HALES children, please? Kind regards Joy who is also seeking BOWYER, MANCHESTER and HINAM in SOM/GLS.
