Ok no I would have to find a DNA match that matches the descendants of William Daw/Ann Gerry and me and descendants of Elizabeth Brock ie Drusilla Brock.

Does that sound right?

Hi Brentnor boy,

Yes I think you have the right Elizabeth because I have them in 1841 with Grandparents Samuel and Jane - Ann b1832 and Elizabeth b 1829 .

I have found a William Daw b1793  in the area . in 1851 he is lodging with the Piper family. in 1861 he is living with Ann Gerry with a son William Daw b1824. He goes on to have children with Ann Gerry .

Could this be my William Daw but which one William Daw  senior or junior?

Anne

Drusilla has been found in 1861 census entered as Priscilla Brock . She is a patient/scholar in Holdsworthy Workhouse where I think she was born (awaiting birth certificate).  Her mother I think dies 1857 Holsworthy workhouse ( yet to order death cert).
In 1871 & 1881  Drusilla is entered as Prescilla Brock general servant in Isaac household in Holsworthy. Later in 1881 Drucilla marries Edward Herbert Mathias .

Yes there is a baptism . The childs name is Drusilla Brock - unfortunately no fathers name listed.
I have information regarding Drusilla but unfortunately no relatives in census etc with Dawe name. On her marriage cert father is William Brock . I have DNA matches with Drusillas descendants.
What I really need is a year of birth for William Dawe so I can place him in the census.

Thanks Annie for replying,
Yes I wasn't sure if "the Elder "was in reference to the location or the man . Was I think clutching at straws.
In the same printout there is another Bastardy order for "William Dawe of the younger division of Holsworthy".

Devon / William Dawe Bastardy bonds

Good morning,

Is it possible to find out more information regarding  Bastardy orders. I ordered back in 2006 a printout for the Dawe family from Devon Family History Society . Part of it was a Index printout of Devon family history books. There is an entry for "William Dawe 22/11/1853 Mother Elizabeth Brock Putative father William Dawe of the Elder Division of Holdsworthy summon 22/11/1853 Petty Sessions on 15/12/1853 Result order made."
I would love to find out more information regarding William Dawe - his address aqe etc to see how he fits with my Dawe family.
Does the elder bit mean he has a son called William?
any help would be most appreciated
regards
Anne

Hope this message finds everyone well

Over 10 Years has passed :-\ and I still have not been able to find the parents of Joseph Scofield b1806 Coventry.  A few trees on ancestry have his mother as Hannah Scofield b 1786 Leek Wooton but I have been unable to confirm this with a paper trail.

I wonder if any of the people who originally contributed to this thread had any luck
