Wow thanks for that Annette
I just never had the time to really search. Once I found out he was illegitimate it seemed to be a brick wall. You have helped me chip away a little.

Hi Borestone
You are right it is a big family! It gets bogged down fairly quickly as well we have been unable to push it beyond Fedelious' Grandfather. Fedelious was one of I think 13 children all living in a tiny farm house in Calthorpe. Many of them left Norfolk to make better lives for themselves. My mother spent the war years as a refugee in the village surrounded by her aunts and uncles. We are descended from Florence Glister who was the baby of the family. When she and her sister Tottie died the solicitor had to do a huge family search to work out who inherited what. So I have quite a lot of information about the cousins etc for the family. I can share that with you if you care to PM me.

I have just joined this website and see posts regarding the Glister family from Calthorpe - Norfork.
My great grandfather was Fidelus Glister born 1893 to Eliza and Thomas died 1978 Stirling Scotland. I believe Eliza's surname was Leacock. Anyone interested in this HUGE family, can contact me, but bear with me i'm new and unsure on how to navigate..
I have seen 2 queries on the website regarding the Glister family. 1. from lynneview and 1 from tati, they were both in 2008. I would like to contact/forward or notify them of above but i am finding the website very difficult to navigate (me!). If anyone can give me advice on how i do this or direct me to them i'd be grateful.

I have PM'd you. However, I believe some of your information is incorrect - I think Eliza was a Wymer not a Laycock. Eliza and Thomas had 13 children. Thomas is descended from John who was married to Sara Laycock (see thread posted in 2008) If you would like more info contact me

At first I thought the one on the left must be a girl because of the wonderous hair.. but then I realised that he was showing far too much leg so it must be a boy! The photo was so lovely all I did was fill the holes get rid of the odd spot or two and then sharpen a little..

The lack of clarity around the childs face makes it a problem... But I have done the best I could I'm sure someone can improve it further...
