Surname Interests - Willis, Wright, Cook, Rawles
« on: Wednesday 02 April 08 10:19 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone,

I'm researching the folllowing names in Essex:

Willis - lived Great & Little Leighs from around 1800 onwards; Great Waltham (circa 1910-1930), Margaretting (1881-onwards) and ran the White Hart PH

Wright - West Ham, Stratford, Romford.

Cook - Rochford.

Rawles - lived Bethnal Green in the 1880s - particularly interested in Thomas Henry Rawles who married Elizabeth Wright in 1884.  Elizabeth died in 1917 and his buried with her parents - why?  They had a son also called Thomas who was born 1895.  Haven't found any other children yet.

Wright (West Ham, Stratford, Cripplegate)
Widenstrom (Chicago and Minnesota)
Swain (Cripplegate, St Lukes)
Wolfe (St Giles in the Fields)
Willis (Gt. Leighs; Brentford)
Bryant (Bristol, Glos)
Searle (Kent/Surrey)
Keyworth (Yorkshire)
Biggs (Harrow Weald)
