Essex / Christopher Simons abt 1750-1826
« on: Friday 05 April 24 15:49 BST (UK)  »
He married Sarah Brommel/Bromley 19 Oct 1773 at Gt Holland where he farmed. They had two children Mary Ann 1776-1810 & William 1778-1826. On 29 Sep 1778 at Gt Holland he was a witnesss at the marriage of Reuben Simons & Susannah Peck. I can find no record of his baptism in Essex. Simons were farmers in Elmstead, Frating & Brightlinsea, but there is no trace of Christopher or Reuben in Essex. Any ideas?

The Destination of Report on the attached POW Index Card. Is to Mrs F.M.Webb, in Sydney Australia a person that I can't identify as a relation. Joseph was released 2.9.1945 & after that I can't find a trace of him. If he made it home to Dovercourt,Essex, England there is no record. Any ideas?

If he was the man mentioned in Venn's Cambridge Alumni, he was born at Cornard Suffolk. graduated from Clare College in 1710 & ordained in 1713. He certainly became vicar of Tolleshunt D'Arcy, Essex in 1714. I'm after his baptism & marriage to Sophia Sidney baptised in Margaretting, Essex 13 Apr 1695.

Scotland / Charles Gibbon MD 1744-1833
« on: Wednesday 06 May 20 16:10 BST (UK)  »
Our man was a surgeon in Kettering, but I believe he was Scots. I need help with where & when he was trained if there are records. Baptism etc would hit the jackpot. He married Jean Ross, in St George in the East (Scotch church) Stepney in 1772.

Suffolk / Smith family Brickmakers
« on: Friday 27 September 19 12:14 BST (UK)  »
I need help finding the relationship between James Smith baptised 13 Jun 1810 in Debenham,son of Peter & Harriet; and Clement Smith born in Brandeston 1811. I have no baptism record for him. They both end up in Weeley Essex in the 1861 census & are brickmakers. Hard to believe they aren't related.
