Daniel CLARK of Westbury
« on: Monday 04 May 09 10:53 UTC (UK) »

I have recently traced my family tree back to 1798, to when Daniel was born, and at a later date moved to Wotton-under-edge in Gloucestershire, I know he lived to be 101 years old as he died in 1899, but the thing is i dont no how to find him in Westbury,I have been told that trying to find anybody from Westbury around 1800 is like looking for a needle in a haystack, is there any one who could advise me where I could go to try and find him.
Will be very grateful.
Ron

Hello Ron,

Welcome to Rootschat

Do you have daniel in all census???

In 1871 (if I have the correct daniel) he gives his po.b. as Frome somerset?Huh?

I don't quite understand what you mean "trying to find anyone from westbury c 1800 is like looking for a needle in a haystack"Huh

Have you searched parish records???

Where does he give p.o.b. in 1851/61 and was h in gloucester in 1841???

Hi (again)

I have found Daniel 1841 in Glos wife hannah 

1851 I have found him -transcribed as David -image reads Daniel p.o.b. Westbury

1861 - is he entered as george b Berkley Somerset?Huh
It seems to be him - wife hannah, daughter Louisa , grandson Fredk grimes (didn't daughter elizabeth marry a mr grimes?)

Or do you know otherwise???

Hi Suz
Many thanks for replying, but it seems that i did not make myself very clear, I have traced Daniel all the way back to his birth in 1789 and from there I can't find out anything else, my comment about the needle in a haystake, is I can't get to wiltshire very easily, so I went to a family tree fair, and was told by someone on the wiltshire stand, that so many were from the westbury area around 1800, that I might not have a lot of joy, so all I want really is some advice on where I could go to find out this info.
