Burial Look up Please

[Lady Di]

Hi All,

I'm trying to find a death on the NBI (or any info) for John AGGS - originally in Norfolk.

He had a son called William AGGS (born c. 1802 Norfolk) and on William's marriage cert. it says: Father John AGGS - deceased.

As William was one of the original "Peelers" in London, it is possible the whole family moved there but I really don't know.

I'm rather clutching at straws here

Thanks for any help or guidance

Regards
Di

PS - It is "reputed" that the family were Quakers


Mods: Please feel free to move this to wherever you feel is the right place.

Hi Di,
      Thought this may be of interest to you, came across it while looking for another person.
     Old Bailey Proceedings (London): 18th Oct 1832:
     John Pinniger Alias William Golding: charged with Animal Theft (1 Gelding).  Without going through the trial text, shall go direct to William.
      William Aggs. "I am a Policeman. On the 26th of September 1832, I took the prisoner on another charge, at his House."-------
        He was Found Guilty by the Jury. aged 40. to be Transported for LIFE.
         If this is of interest to you, let me know! I have also noted a few Aggs in Norfolk around 1750-1806 but have not yet  compiled a list .

Hi Reg and Chairlady,

Thank you both so much for all the information.

Reg - Yes, that is one of a few trials showing my Great Great Grandfather's good work  . Interestingly, the majority of my ancestors where the ones on trial (it's probably lucky that William wasn't the Policeman who arrested one of my other ancestors - bit of a conflict a few generations later  )

Anyway, back to the Aggs family - I know that there was a Quaker family in Norfolk called Aggs who have been very thoroughly researched and documented. They are generally called the Hanbury-Aggs. It would be great to connect with that lot but I have been unable to find any connection.

If you have uncovered anything from the Norfolk/Norwich side, I'd be most grateful for any information - Thank you.

ChinaLady - Thank you so very much for sending all the NBI Aggs records. I didn't realise there would be quite so many  . Sadly no John Aggs of the right period - but that doesn't mean that he wasn't using his second name or something else. 

I will keep all these on file as, hopefully, I will be able to connect to at least one of them at some stage.

Thank you both - I appreciate your help 

Di

Hi Di.
       I am wondering if you have done any work on ..........
   John Aggs , Marriage to Eliz Woods, on the 20th May 1762 at St Benedict , Norwich.    (taken from the Parish Register)
   Reg.

[Lady Di]

Hi Reg,

No - I haven't done anything with them. I'll check what I have (very little) but don't recall her name.

I do have the Will of John Gurney AGGS from c. 1810 (died 1811) (Norfolk) but he appears to have died without marriage/issue (although I can't read all of the Will  )

Do you have any further details? They may have had a son called John which would put him about the right age for the guy I'm looking for  - particularly as my William was "reputed" (on census) to have been born in Norwich.

Thanks

Di

Hi .
   Can you give me William Aggs mother's name before marriage??.
    Reg.

[Lady Di]

Oh Reg - how I wish I could. 
(I dont even know her name AFTER marriage  )

Unfortunately all I have is from William's marriage cert (to Ann Spurgin 16.10.1838) where it says his father's name was "John Aggs - deceased".

William was born c. 1802 according to the 1851 census. He died in 1857 so there are no later census I can use.

I feel like I'm looking for a needle in a haystack even though the name is unusual enough.

Thanks

Di

hi .
                           1841  Census
    Just wont to make sure I am on the correct track!
   Ann Aggs:dob 1815 : St Pancras, Middlesex.  ##
   Ann Aggs:   "   1840:          "               "        .
William Aggs   "   1802:          "               "


Harriet Springer:  1822:         "               "    Could  this Harriet be related in someway.

    ## I wonder if this Ann could be Williams Wife??
