Hi Sue,
Regarding your Philomon, have you thought about posting a topic under the title Philomon Fewell, it might just ring a bell in someone's mind.
If you are a member of the Essex Society for Family History you can put a help request in the magazine for quite a modest amount, there are quite a few researchers who are not "computerised".

Hi Findem
OK, thanks, I've done that, it's worth a try.  I have posted it under Essex on here and also on Gencom.  Nobody seems to be using gencom now, the last message was posted by me back in June.

Hi All

First off Thanx Kevan for the support and advice!
Secondly, i have just had a look at all the messages and i have not received one of them, i checked my notify thing and it is on so what is happening, seeing as the last post was yesterday!!!!!

Julie hope the wedding went well and thanx
As you know i am off to th ERO in about 8 hours from now, i will look at Little Easton after i have tried to confirm that William fewell of felstead is the son of william and hannah.

Sue, i have got the info you have sent to me on the fuel's from takeley and will try and check that to for you!
Wish me luck , i think i will need it, especially as it's the kids last day of term today so this will be the only chance i get until they go back to school in sept.

Findem, when you come over in October,let me know, would be a good time for me also to go back to the ERO if you fancy some company. Nearer the time i will send you my phone number, Maybe the rest of the Fewell lot can come to!!
Well be in touch soon with what ever i find out. I will send it by email and then post it on here.
Do hope i start getting replys to these messages !!

Hi Kath,
Yes to company Kath, a bit nearer the time I hope to have an idea of what days I can go in (as many as possible).
As for the "no notification" of posts I'm in the same boat, the other day I did't get a notifcation of a post, I contacted the moderator, then I got a notification and thought problem solved. Now I'm back to square one because I wasn't notified of your post    looks like a glitch.

Hiya

Well i got a notification of your post just now hahaha.
Depending on how far i can waddle with my bump come october depends on how many days i can make it to the ERO with you , but i will make at least one day (promise). But hopefully more as i have other surnames on hubbys side to check out to.

Will email you later with any info i can find out about the fewell's
Gonna look at the thaxted records to if i get a chance cos middleenglander has a gut feeling that in someway the fewells of chignall st james and great waltham etc are connected, so i will see what i can find.
I have copied down your tips you sent so thanx very much for them.
will chat soon

Hi Kath,
Something has just occured to me, since my friend couldn't find the marriage at Felsted of William & Hannah (parent's of William Fewell baptised 1744 Felsted), who knows perhaps the marriage is at Thaxted.
By the way now I'm getting notification again, weird!! 

[Susie1]

Good luck with your searches today Kath.
I havn't been getting notification either, but I have just got this one. Hope they sort it out soon.

Hi Sue and the rest of the Fewell hunting crew ....

I've just had much of the information that I was after concerning the settlement of 'William the Elder' come in from another source (thanks Pam). 

For the record, details of the settlement are as follows:

The Examination dated 17th July 1777
He was born in the parish of Takely had before Michaelmas day taken employment with George Gaynor of Little Eiston for a year and a day and received full wages therefore that is his place of settlement.
The removal order with the same date lists William Fewell the elder, Elizabeth his wife, his children, William aged 13 years, Mary aged 12, Thomas aged 6 and John aged 4.
All were sent to Little Easton from the parish of Great Dunmow.

I'm pretty sure that this is the William who married Elizabeth Green at Takeley in 1761.  None of his children are on my website yet - so it shows that we need some of the records for the Dunmow area. Hmmm.

Not my line unfortunately, but I hope this helps somebody else in the future.

All the Best

Hi MiddleEnglander
The only problem with this is the only children on the baptisms for Takely for William & Elizabeth Fuell are:
John b 1769 & Elizabeth b 1771. And on the children you mentioned John was age 4 in 1777.
