DOERY in Bushey

[Andy_C]

I'm hoping someone can help me unravel the DOERY family!

I have George DOERY (age 41 b. London)  at the Bell Inn, Bushey in 1851, also his wife Elizabeth (age 41 b. Stockland, Dorset), and daughter Elizabeth (age 1 b.London). This therefore seems to indicate that they moved from London to Bushey between 1850 and 1851? He was at The Bell Inn for many years, last record being the 1871 census.

I've found a marriage between George DOERY and Elizabeth PYNE (or PAYNE) at St George the Martyr, Southwark in 12/11/1848, both ages are given as 39 and both otp. George's occupation is Fruiterer.

I haven't been able to find George in the 1841 census.

I think George's baptism was possibly 8 Sept 1809 at St James Westminster, birth being 12 Aug 1809, parents William and Jane.

Now, there was another DOERY family in Bushey:
1851 William (age 50 b. Middlesex, London) occupation Omnibus Proprietor, wife Elizabeth (age 48 b. Middlesex, Edgeware), son William (age 15 b. Middlesex, Stanmore), daughter Jane (age 11 b. Middlesex, Stanmore)
1861 they are at Harts Farm, Little Bushey Lane, William being a widower
1871 still at Harts Farm
Looks like  William junior took on the farm, he's there in 1891

Be grateful for any help linking the 2 Doery families - it seems too much of a coincidence that they are both in Bushey around the same time, having apparently moved from London.

Does he name William as his father when he marries?

Added:
Yes, William Doery. coach office keeper(?)

Yes, but George's father, William, is not the William at Harts Farm, Bushey. The William Doery at Harts Farm was born about 1801 according to the 1851 and 1861 census. George Doery was born about 1808.

Interestingly the 2 Williams seem to have had similar occupations, Omnibus proprietor and Coach office keeper.

Also William (1801) looks to have been married in 1830, to Elizabeth Fitch, at St James, Westminster which is where George was baptised in 1809

More digging to do!

William and Jane baptised a William John Doery 12 Dec 1800 at Westminster have you proved that this is not the William who married Elizabeth Fitch

I've been doing some checking up this morning, I think it's very likely the same William, which would make him and George brothers. This links the two families.

Thanks all!
