Mercy Wingrove of Bradenham
« on: Saturday 26 August 17 18:04 BST (UK) »
Hi All,

I am trying to trace the origins of Mercy who was the wife of Frances Wingrove of Bradenham.

I have found a reference in the Centre for Buckinghamshire Studies catalogue that lists her aunt:

Ref No: D-CN/9/1/1/6/20 - 3rd Feb 1745
(1) Ursley Newell of High Wycombe Borough, widow
(2) John Wingrove of Bradenham, carpenter, and his wife Mercy Wingrove, niece of (1)


Other catalogued documents show that Ursley Newell was a widow by 1711 and that she had a daughter, Sarah Newell, who married John Johnson Jnr. between 1711 and by 16 Sep 1726 (date on another document).

If anyone can find any good matches for Ursley Newell this may show what Mercy Wingrove's maiden name was as I cannot locate a marriage for her and Frances. I'm assuming she was a blood niece so I would need to trace Ursley's maiden name and siblings.

Any help appreciated.

Frances Wingrove and Edward King are my direct line (7th Great Grandparents). I would be interest to know what you have on Edward's ancestors. I mapped out the direct lines as best I could the other evening.

Let me help if I can...

William King married Mary Welch in Aylesbury on 8th April 1740 - William of Monks Risborough, Mary of Princes Risborough.

Mary Welch was baptised in Monks Risborough on 6th Jan 1716 dau. of John Welch and Faith Aldridge who married 23 Jan 1711 in Monks Risborough. Faith was catholic and swore the Oaths of Alleigence - so may be why I can't find an Anglican baptism.

That's as far as I've got.

Thanks for that.  ;D

So Faith Aldridge was born c1690 ish, I expect.

I'll see what I can find in Aylesbury & Princes Risboruugh.  Several Aldridges on my tree, but a wee bit later.

Nothing of worth in Aylesbury PR's, for any Aldridge, earlier than 1701.

No Kings that seem to link to Monks Risborough/Princes Risborough, apart from the 1740 marriage. I guess that was because Mary Welch was 3 to 4 months pregnant with Edward.
