Hi.............well I was born and bred in Barry. I'll be there over the May b/hol. My maternal grandmother was Edith Maud Mepham b 1894. She was one of approx 16 children of Henry Mepham and Sarah Jane Knight. I have a house in Barry, though live in Sussex. I have a family tree found at http://www.tribalpages.com/tribes/daveymax. Take a look and ask me for the password and you will then see lots of Mepham names. Most Mephams came originally from Sussex & Kent. The ancestry of Thomas b 1790 was obtained from "Tibbymay" who lives in Ontario. Good Luck, D

I have copies of the original birth details of Thomas b 19/06/1790, and his marriage to Susannah Avis in 08/06/1820 in Withyham Sussex, and also his parents marriage in 14/10/1784 which I could send you. There seems to be only one Susannah Avis in the records from Chiddingstone near Withyham, christened on 29/07/1798 who is probably our ancestor.
I still have no absolute proof that Mary Quaife was the mother of Thomas b 1790. Nor that his grandparents were another Thomas b circa 1710 who married Mary Crouch on 01/10/1735 in Wartling Sussex, not far from Battle.
I would also like to have a copy of the exact birth details of William b circa 1828 in Poplar?
Speak soon, D
