Re:Surname interests in Glamorgan.

[Susan41]

I have just found a connection between my ROSSER ancestors of London to Mitcheldean, Gloucestershire and now to Glamorganshire.

William ROSSER married Martha HANCORNE 26 Aug 1740 St. Hilary. Their eldest child, Henry ROSSER was c. 4 Oct 1741 at Llanblethian and died 1812 in London.

A HANCORNE researcher has been extremely helpful in providing HANCORNE ancestry but doesn't have much information about this ROSSER family.

I have found the following wills for children of William and Martha (HANCORNE) ROSSER -
1. Henry ROSSER  d. 1812
2. Richard ROSSER  d. 1847
3. Mary ROSSER  d. 1842
4. Martha Eleanora (ROSSER) HOARE  d. 1843
5. Frances ROSSER  d. 1833

From the wills I know that another sister had a daughter named, Elizabeth WATKINS who married Edward BRADLEY  1811 in Cowbridge and another sister had a son named, John MILES who had a son also named John MILES and 2 daughters, one of whom was named "Ciss"/Cecil/Cecilia MILES.

Other children of William & Martha ROSSER are said to be:
William ROSSER c. 1 Mar 1744  Llanblethian
Thomas ROSSER c. Feb 1744  Llandow
Cecil/Cecilia ROSSER -
John ROSSER  bur. 2 Apr 1755  Llandow
Elizabeth ROSSER  c. 21 Sep 1755  Cowbridge
Jane ROSSER  c. 5 Jul 1757  Cowbridge
John ROSSER  c. 20 Mar 1760  Cowbridge

So now I am seeking information about ROSSER families residing in Glamorgan.

i am descended from john who took on his mothers maiden name as a middle name becoming john morse evans and had 10 surviving children.
9 of whom emigrated and the only one to remain was cadwalladr morse ivan evans (living blackmill)whose line i am descended from.
 i would love to trace any other descendents from thomas and dorothy or from cadwalladr.
have been in contact with 1 of my expatriate cousins already.
