Hi Lisa. I don't know much about my great grandmother, but I was told her name was Brench and that she was a Romany gypsy who lived in Stoke Gardens in Slough. Do you think she could be related to Minnie? I know "my" Brenches owned a lot of property in or around Stoke Gardens.  Her daughter, my grandmother, was called Louisa.

Following on from my previous post, I've been doing some research into my grandmother, Louise Sutton (nee Brench) and have come up with the following. I think most is correct, although of course errors could occur! However, if it is not too long-winded, I hope it helps! See below:


(NOTE: some details may be incorrect, for example some couples may not have married, dates may be wrong, etc. Further investigations are needed to corroborate these details)

Louise Sutton’s (nee Brench) mother was Minnie Brench (nee Ives, but unsure if she was actually married), born in Towersey, Buckinghamshire in 1879, died in 1950.

She also married again later to John H Devonshire in 1943. He died in 1958.

It looks as if Minnie had also been married prior to marrying (or living with) William Brench, to Charles Woodbridge, on 15 December 1895 in Towersey, Buckinghamshire. She was 19 (possibly lied about her age as by my reckoning she would only have been 16?) and he was 21.

Minnie's parents were Enos Ives, 1823-1902, and Ann Sarah Ives (nee Allen), 1852-??  It appears that they had at least 10 children and it was Enos’ second marriage after his first wife, Mary, died aged 46.

Ann Sarah Ives’ parents were Thomas Allen, 1807-?? and Ann Allen (nee Acres), 1810-??

Enos Ives’ parents were Benjamin Ives (A), 1789-??, and Elizabeth Ives (nee King), no date of birth as yet.

Benjamin Ives’ (A) parents were Benjamin Ives (B), 1761-??, and Sarah Ives (Looseley), date of birth unknown.

Benjamin Ives’ (B) parents were Ralph Ives, 1736-??, and Jane Ives (nee Gibbs), date of birth unknown.

Ralph Ives’ parents were Thomas Ives, no date of birth known, and Sarah Ives (nee Randall), no date of birth known.



**********

Louise Sutton’s father was William Brench, 1864-1936. His parents were John Brench (1)1831-1877, and Hannah Brench (2) (nee Webb) 1830-?? 

John Brench’s (1) parents were John Breach (3) (maybe misspelled?), 1800-?? and Elizabeth Breach (4) (nee Hawes), 1803-?? 

¥¥ Hannah’s (2) (nee Webb) parents were Andrew Webb, 1795-1871, and Elizabeth Webb (nee Dewitt), 1799-1854.

John Breach’s (3) parents were John Breach, 1777-?? and Elizabeth Breach (nee Flegler), 1777-??

Elizabeth’s (4) (nee Hawes) parents were James Hawes, 1777-?? and Ann ???

***The Brench children (of William and Minnie) listed in 1911 Census, were William (1898), Alfred (1900), Edward (1904), Nellie (1906), Florence (1908) and Louise (1910). There was at least one more child not listed in 1910, and she was named Minnie, (born 1917). Also, I believe there was a Robert, Jack (John?) and Edie (I think her birth name was Jean)***

*****

¥¥ Following on Hannah Webb’s (2) family line (parents were Andrew and Elizabeth Webb - see details above).

Andrew Webb’s parents were Andrew Webb (5), 1765-?, and Ann Webb (nee Bullock), 1769-? 

Andrew Webb’s (5) parents were Thomas Webb, no birth date as yet, and Elizabeth Webb (nee Curtis), no birth date as yet.

Elizabeth Webb’s (nee Dewitt) parents were Robert Dewitt, 1765-1819, and Elizabeth Dewitt (nee Wilden), 1769-1811.

Robert Dewitt’s parents were Moses Dewet (note different spelling), 1721-1810, and Ann Dewet (no maiden name yet), 1725-1789.

No further information on Elizabeth Dewitt’s (nee Wilden) family yet.

Hi
I have been researching my Brench family for a few years.
My Father was son of Alfred Brench (son of William and Minnie).
I see a lot of info above which confirms some of my findings.
In army records a Charles Woodbridge married to Minnie Ives died in S Africa during the Boer war 1901 from disease. This seems to confirm why he is not found in UK records with Minnie.
