So is everyone posting here part of the Treays/Trease/Traies family? What or who is everyone trying to find or trace back, or even forward, to? I had a look at that link gardenerbob but I'd need to spend some time speaking to my grandma to find out about my grandad's parents and grandparents who some of those people may well be. It's just difficult because she lives in Devon whereas I'm in Scotland.

Hi Genny
Welcome to the Treays/Traies etc etc hunt
I have Traies in my family line, in the Kensington and Hackney areas of London in the mid 18th century and before that Exeter in Devon. A number of us have been searching for James Traies and his (I think the latest count is 5) wives.

Any reason you're all looking for a James Treays? And when and where was he supposed to have lived?

Hi
James Traies was born 1785 in Exeter, Devon, and at some point moved to London. For the best summary of his life Bob has a page on his brilliant website http://www.trease.org.uk/traies/txt/txt17s_ec.htm#19j_h
a number of rootschatters that have been on here are descended in some way from James, I'm descended from his son, Samuel.

Nothing particularly exciting but .... a long time back on this thread, a question was raised as to whether James could be the father of the following infant interred 15Apr1831 Bunhill cemetery - William Traies age 2yr 6mos of Powell Street.
I think I may have the answer, although I have not found his baptism. On 01oct1826, Mary and Elizabeth Traies daughters of William and Louisa Traies, Silversmith, of Powell Street were baptised at St Lukes Old Street Finsbury. I think it almost certain that William Traies the silversmith was also the father of the infant William of Powell Street. So far appears he was the only son and would have been the last son on this branch of the Traies family tree to carry on the family name. William the father almost certainly went to Cincinnatti after his son's death and returned to die in the UK.
Although that burial now has a probable answer, in my search I noticed another burial - Mary Traies interred 06Nov1828 age 8 mos at St Marys Paddington Green Westminster AAD Paddington. This could possibly be a child of James or even his Uncle James (who would have then been pushing 70!).
Regards,
Bob

Correction: Uncle James should have read Uncle William (the Chelsea pensioner with a younger wife) in last sentence of last post.
Apologies,
Bob

Hi Bob
Thanks for that, I recently downloaded the Mary Traies burial 1828 to my just in case pile and I feel she must have been a child of James. That reminds me to try and find a baptism for her again.
