Looking for more info on the Watts family of Romsey
« on: Tuesday 14 April 09 14:38 UTC (UK) »
I am looking for more info on my great x3 grandfather's family his name was James Watts & he was born 23 f eb 1804 Romsey, his siblings were Isaac bap 14 Mar 1797 Romsey, Rebecca Bap 3 May 1795, Ann 25 Dec 1799 & John bap 11 Jul 1801.
Going back another generation I have Isaach/Isaac born 1765 Romsey, Elizabeth bap 19 Sep 1755 Romsey, Hannah 15 May 1758, Edward bap 24 Jan 1762 Romsey & Hannah 18 Aug 1764.  Their parents were Isaac Watts born 7 Jan 1727/8 Romsey who married Elizabeth Heaver bap 17 Sep 1775 Romsey.  Recently someone very kindly confirmed the parents of the Isaac Watts born 1727/8 as Edward & Elizabeth (nee How or Leward) married 6th March 1724.

I would be grateful for any tip bits on this family as I am trying to prove (or disprove) a link to one of the brothers of Isaac Watts Hymnwriter who was born in Southampton.  I know that there is a link to the Above bar church in Southampton James Weeks was a deacon at the church in 1811 he was James
(23 f eb 1804) father in law, and know that Isaac Watts Hymnwriter also preached at this church.

Hoping someone can help
regards Trish
