Thomas Woodley - Hagbourne?
« on: Thursday 27 August 09 16:01 UTC (UK) »

I wonder whether someone has access to Hagbourne Marriages? and could offer any help  Grin.  Thomas Woodley married Mary Harwood on 29 July 1761 at Hagbourne.  I'm looking for any clues on the marriage (witnesses etc) that might possibly lead on to finding a baptism and some parents for Thomas who has 'appeared' in my tree, and I'm trying every avenue to source where he may have come from.  Hagbourne maybe;  but I am unable to find him.  I have found lots of other 'Woodley' baptisms in Hagbourne, but can only find Thomas's son Thomas in 1762. ?   I have details of their children and can go forward, however I would like to try and find Thomas's parents.  Any help  would be greatly appreciated.

Captain2,

Continuing on;  Mary Harwood was baptised 22-9-1726 dau of John & Anne

Hagbourne - nothing more listed.

John Harwood married Anne Parsons 6-4-1725, Hagbourne -  again nothing

more is listed.

There are lots of Harwoods listed in the baptismal records but I could not

find a John Harwood within a relevant time frame (i.e.  a John born/bapt say

1680 - 1700)

Nor could I see the baptism of Anne Parsons.

Hope this helps

Hi Alan,

Very many thanks for your reply.  The witness's are very interesting, assume Jo. Harwood is (John) Mary's father and the name Keate is one that crops up a few times in the Woodley line I am looking into, although they are mostly in Harwell; not knowing the area but looking on a map I see that it is relatively close to Hagbourne. I have a marriage for Katherine Woodley to John Keate in 1628 in Harwell, obviously a lot to do to connect the two events!  Possibly my Thomas Woodley came from Harwell and not Hagbourne..   I think I have to find out a little more about Jonathan Keate to know how he might fit in.

I have a  baptism for John Harwood  which I believe is correct 26 March 1703 Hagbourne son of John and Jane (?) and a baptism for Anne Parsons, again which I believe may be correct 30 March 1701 South Moreton, Berks, daughter of Thomas & Elizabeth (?)
I have not been able to verify either of these dates as yet, they were kindly given to me by another researcher.

Kind Regards  Angie

Hi Angie,

I have found the baptismal entry of Ann Parsons,  which is as you already have is  (30-3-

1701)  dau of Thomas & Elizabeth) Farmer    born 25-3 in the South MoretonPRs.

No more info is listed.


Regarding Jonathon Keate - this is what I have found in the Harwell  PRs ;

Katherine Woodley marr John Keate  30-11-1628

No more info is listed


As for baptisms, I've looked from 1590 - 1614 and found the following;

20-3-1591/2  John Keat  son of John   -------

there are two other baptisms which i don't think are relevant but included for info;

18-11-1610     John Keat son of George & Mary

28-11-1610     John Keat son of Stephen & Joan


There is a marriage on 4-6-14570 of John Keat to Alce Smalbone - no further details

listed.

Hope this helps.

regards

Alan

Thank you very much Alan, that has been a great help.  No, KN  I did not know there was a house called Woodley's in East Hagbourne, thank you for that info.  I have lots of info on Woodley's in Hagbourne and Harwell, I'm trying to link something to Thomas Woodley, all I know about him is his marriage in Hagbourne.  Thanks so much for your time and effort, greatly appreciated.  I will try again to find Thomas and his parents, I have a number of possibles, but nothing to link them all together....

There's also a Woodleys cottage in Brightwell cum Sotwell (It's for sale right now).  Brightwell's only a couple of miles away across the fields.

Hi Angie,

Could this be the Thomas Woodley  your after? ;

Baptised  14-9-1709 son of William & Joan  - Abingdon St.Helens ex OFHS

If it is,  then his parents were married at Abingdon St.Helens on
"16-4-1695  William Woodley to Joan Martin - Sutton"


Thomas was the 7th child born to them. There may be more but haven't looked after finding this Thomas.

Hi,

I found this in England & Wales Christening Records, 1530-1906 at Ancestry,

Thomas Woodly
Christening Date: 27 Apr 1740
Christening Place: Drayton, Berkshire

it's about 6 miles from Hagbourne but it doesn't give any parents Sad

Thanks Alan and Daisy Petal.  I think the 1709 is possibly to early, Thomas's first son born in 1762 after his marriage, it could be ofcourse as he could have married before.. I've been working around the 1730-40 mark so possibility with Drayton ( maybe completely wrong ofcourse!) I was ofcourse hoping that a 'Woodley' would have been one of their witnesses at Thomas's wedding - no such luck!

Angie

Have you seen the page or so of information about Thomas Woodley from West Hagbourne in the book "Windsor Hakebourne: the story of West Hagbourne"?

This Mr Woodley emigrated to New Zealand with his wife Martha in 1875.  The piece includes an article about their journey retold by his daughter in law Mary.

Type in Windsor Hakebourne.  It comes up with the village history and details of the book etc., published by the West Hagbourne Village History Group.  The site gives a view on the village which is very interesting; or try West Hagbourne and you get the same web page.  This is not the Thomas Woodley that I'm looking for, he was married to Mary and I can trace most of his descendants., what I'm struggling with is Thomas himself - nothing more than his marriage at the moment.
