FOSSEY look up
« on: Tuesday 03 January 12 01:20 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for details of parents, baptisms etc for Catherine Fossey born abt 1792 in Bedfordshire. She married William Tearle in Toddington in 1824.
I have them on the 1841 census onwards, and history of Williams family but no details of Catherine, otherwise known as Kitty.

Other children in this family - from Family Search

Mary  25 Nov 1787

William 22 Aug 1790

Moses  24 Jan  1797

John    9 Mar  1799 - this last has either John of William and Anne as parents.

It is odd - there are 11 entries and 10 of them have mother Anne - but different spouses.   Robert,  is the other father.
there is another with William and Hannah (a variation of Anne) -   better look at these yourself to see what fits! 

 FS enter batch number P003911 and Fossey plus 1796 +/- 10 years, births in Bedfordshire

That is fantastic, something for me to look into.
Kitty (which we always thought was a nickname) named one of her own sons Moses, and as it appears she had a brother by the same name, I would say this is the same family. Could be interesting.
Muchly appreciated

Just been looking at other children in the William Susanna family -    :-\

 - another child in that family is James -

Houghton Regis isn't very far away from Toddington - just looked it up.

Lots of Fosseys in Houghton!   

Another family with William and Elisabeth as parents - can't see a William as child there  in the right time frame!  i.e 1755 +/- 10

All this on family search

I was just looking at the marriage and I think that could be right.
Also Sarah is Kittys daughters name, thats all her kids covered in family names.
I thought they originated from Houghton so it looks possible, will look at it further mow
