Hi all,

If anyone else is researching these, I'd be happy to compare notes.

Fryer
Parnell
Fish
Moore

Hi Ray,

Sorry, I haven't come across a Miles Fish or Ann Parnell as yet.
But who knows, something may well turn up!

Some of my Parnell names are: (all born between 1844-1873)

George, Mary, Frederick, Edward, Emma, Sarah, Albert, Rebecca, Rowland.
The parents of these were Edward and Sarah Parnell-Edward born c1828-


The Fish name comes in to this tree by Edward Parnell (above) marrying Sarah Fish in 1878, in Norwich. I've only briefly looked at Sarah fish's family pre 1880. But as i said, haven't found a Miles Fish yet.

My main tree is Fryer from Norwich, my grandmother was a Parnell before marrying into the Fryer family.

Let me know if you find anything!
Regards,
Sue

Hello SueF,
Here goes with my Moore's (Norwich) - the info is very scarce as I as yet haven't researched into this branch of the family:-

Sampson (Samson) Moore 1861 - married Eliza Mary Ann - one of their daughters was Edith Maria Moore 1878.
Edith Maria produced a base born child - Walter John Moore 1897 - ( father John Boatwright ) - although on Walter John's birth certificate it states 'father unknown', family history confirms that the father was John Boatwright who ran away, joined the army and was never heard of again.

Can you connect to any of these names ??

Hi Rosemary,

I haven't got very far with my "Moore's of Norwich" yet either. My main interest is Phoebe Moore bn. c1854, she married into my main tree in 1878. She married Henry Fryer in Norwich.

I Know her parents were James and Mary Ann, and she had a sister Sarah Ann - got this info from 1861 census.

So I haven't as yet connected any of your names! More work still to do, I think!

Regards,
Sue

Hi Ray,
Thanks for the info, it may well come in useful at a later date.
Yes I replyed to Christy too. But none of her names matched mine either.
Luckily I have found connections on my Mothers side of the family. But haven't found anyone with the Fryer, Parnell, Fish or Moore names on my Fathers side as yet. So I live in hope!!!
Please get in touch again if you find anything,
Regards,
Sue

Hi Do you have any info on William Henry Moore born in Kings island Van demains land (Australia) we don,t know why he was out there but he was born 1845 approx and came to Norwich in about 1861, was he a son of a convict or soldier we just dont know, i have sent many emails to Tasmania and had no luck yet (20 yrs searching so any help please)

Hi Gordon,

My main interest in the Moore family is Phoebe born 1854. 

Phoebe's grandparents were James & Elizabeth Moore both born c1806.

Pheobe's parents were James & Mary Moore, James was born c1831. James's  siblings were all born between 1827 - 1847. This seems to be the generation that you would be interested in, but I haven't as yet come accross Wiliam Henry Moore.

Your William Henry Moore may well be the the son of a brother of James Moore (bn. 1806)? If you follow my thinking...lol...But I do know from my research on Ancestry there are other Moore family's in the Norwich area that are not connected.

Sorry I can't be more helpful, If anything turns up I will get back to you.

 .... Happy New Year,

Sue
