1841 Mercer Chieveley

[smm]

Thanks to Rooschat members I have found my family in 1851 in Chieveley

I am now looking for any Mercers in and around Chieveley in 1841

Especially William J Mercer b 1835 (my gt gt gt grandfather)
and his brother? George b 1832

Their father Thomas died 1838 but Wm/Geo's mother's name believed to be Charlotte (waiting confirmation from parish records)

Any help much appreciated

In 1841 Charlotte was living with the two boys in Shaw cum Donnington

GEORGE BORN 1832 BORN IN COUNTY
WILLIAM BORN 1836 BORN IN COUNTY

I will have a look around and see if I can find any others for you

There seems to be another family in the same village / town of Shaw cum Donnington


HO 107/1723 FOLIO 10 PAGE 15

WILLIAM MERCER b 1781 IN COUNTY - LABOURER
ANN MERCER b 1791 IN COUNTY
JOHN b 1821 IN COUNTY - LABOURER
CAROLINE b 1821 IN COUNTY
HANNAH b 1821 IN COUNTY
MARY A AGED 5 MONTHS BORN IN COUNTY


This could possibly be the parents of your Thomas died 1838?

Hope this helps in some way

Hello Sarah,
I have your William J Mercer on my tree.  His mother Charlotte married again to William Goodchild.  His daughter Sarah Ann married George Pyke who was grandson of Lucy Sellwood of my paternal Sellwoods.
Can we collaborate?

Hi Vicwinann

Thanks for the contact.
Sarah Ann Mercer's big brother George is my Gt Gt Grandad.
I only know the barest of details about Sarah. I believe she was born Q4 1862 Newbury 2c 212 and died Q2 1898 Newbury 2c 156 (Same quarter as her fourth child  Annie was born - is there a link?). I do not have her baptism or burial info. I know she married George in 1886 in Newbury district but don't have the details of the church etc.

Her second son (Ernest) James has a grandson called Derek who recently contacted me with some information. If you let me have your contact I could put you in touch with him.

Regards
