Warwickshire / Bissell Quaker Family of Henly-in-Arden, Late 1600's
« on: Tuesday 31 March 20 16:19 BST (UK) »
I'm researching a Bissell family in my family tree. They appear to have been Quaker, living in Henly-in-Arden. The husband & wife/parents were John (died I think 1728 Henly-in-Arden) & Mary Bissell. Children being John (1688), Mary (1689), Sarah (1690), Hannah (1692), James (1693), Josiah (1695), Nathaniel (1698), George (1700), Elizabeth (1703) & Esther (1705). I found their births in non-conformist archives on familysearch.org.
I'd like to know who John's parents were & that of his wife, whoever she was (I've seen her maiden name in various places as Watts, but no marriage date). Secondly, I've seen on bmdregisters.co.uk that Henly-in-Arden had a meeting from about 1669-1754, so what meeting would John's parents have attended before 1669? Any help welcome & appreciated.
