Mansell Family Gotherington/Bishops Cleeve

[Mansl]

I was just wondering if there is any way I could go further back in my family tree, at the start of it
I have

Thomas Mansell died 1818 Gotherington aged 69, Buried 17/9/1818 in Bishops Cleeve.

Married Mary Wilks 24/7/1776 at Bishops Cleeve.

Mary died 1815 aged 66, Buried 18/11/1815 at Bishops Cleeve.

I already have their sons Richard bapt. 26/1/177 and Thomas bapt. 14/1/1780 both born at Gotherington and bapt. at Bishops Cleeve.

I couldn't find any other children.

Hello Daisy.

I am very grateful for your help. I did spend a week in Gloucester records office a few years ago camping in a field 5 miles away and was only able to find what I have.

Ann, Hannah, and Jean look as though they are Thomas and Mary's daughters, being daughters and not sons makes it easy for me to put them in my book because if they were males I have to follow their children as well. I can certainly add Richard and Johannah  to my tree along with the baptism. My family comes off Richard their son, Thomas their other son I could not find again after his baptism. If either of those girls got married and there was a record found that would be great.

I suppose the next thing to find is who was Johannah.

Thank you Alan

That is brilliant thank you, I am busy moving my family tree down a generation of which I now have eleven.

I have to try and find the deaths of Richard and Johannah and  any of those daughters and Thomas the son.

Thank you again Capetown.

Hi Capetown

What does that mean "Residence year 1769 Bishops Cleeve"

is it like an electoral register.
