I just happened across this on the 'New' listings Gabriel.
Usually people put 'thank yous' on the post concerned so that all contributors see it - otherwise they might miss it, and it's always lovely to get a thank you!
I'm glad we were able to help.  :)

Yep. I'd agree.
"deced" = dece(ase)d

From the 1583 Heralds Visitation of Staffordshire - if you've not seen it.

Have you seen this?
The Bowyers were very high class. I have come across them before as land owners for some of my more lowly ancestors!
I found 'Knipersley' can also be spelt variously, especially as 'Knypersley'.

It's not just a photograph. It also gives some information about the family.
Is this your ancestor? Wow!

Quote "Through my Cheshire yeoman family of Jackson of Middlewich I have discovered marriages that have led me to Derbyshire and Staffs"

Yes, I also found this. The borders are all very close around there.

I have some Heywoods around this area.
Not anybody from Stonylowe as such, but I do remember the name can be spelt in a number of different ways.
Have you tried looking under 'Haywood'; 'Hayward'; 'Hayward'; and even 'Heaward'?

Cornwall / Does anyone live near St Kew?
« on: Saturday 20 April 24 03:22 BST (UK)  »
I have found a reference to a memorial in St Kew church, on the British Listed Building site, for "Mrs Melloney Pomory", who died in 1799. (The name is usually spelt Pomery or Pomeroy, but is quoted on the site as Pomory).
Melloney Pomery was the wife of the Reverend Joseph Pomery - vicar at St Kew for some 60 years.
She was born Melloney Scobell.
The memorial is evidently in the tower.

There are many photographs on The British Listed Building site - quite a lot of the stained glass windows, but none of this memorial.

Might there be anyone going that way who could take a photograph of it?
I would be very grateful
Thank you

Here are the signatures at the bottom.
Looks like 'William' is correct.
Both petty fancy!  :)
