It seems that many of my ancestors either weren't truthful about a) their last name, or b) where they were born. Or maybe they just didn't do the whole baptism thing. I've been looking through the Seax site and getting thoroughly frustrated. Aside from the ancestors that I found there before on one branch of my family tree, I'm coming up with nothing. I've gone nearly cross-eyed from trying to decipher those old registers... and all for nought.
I'm seeking birth/baptism/parentage information on the following people who were supposedly born in Essex:
Eleazer Willsher, born c1575 (his children were born at Scripps Farm in Coggeshall... I couldn't find them, either)
Susannah Clarke, born c1640 in Coggeshall
William Fisher, born c1640 (daughter Elizabeth was born 1664 in Coggeshall)
Joseph Lambert, born c1645 (possibly in High Easter)
Henry Hobro, born c1655 (wife was Mary; daughter born in Great Wigborough)
Edward Saitch/Sach, born c1695 (married in Messing)
Mary Hayes, born 1703 in Bradwell Juxta Coggeshall
Elizabeth Jordan, born 1708 in Coggeshall
James Wheeler, born c1730 (married in Messing)
Joseph Hills, born c1740 in Epping
Elizabeth Bull, born c1745 (married in Manuden)
Joseph South, born c1745 in Essex (wife was Rose; daughter born in Messing)
Martha Steele, born c1755 (probably in Essex; buried in Great Easton)
Susanna Bassott, born c1771 in Wivenhoe
William Chiddock, born c1778 in Great Bentley
Joseph Wincle/Winkell, born c1789 in Kelvedon
If you have any information about any of these people, please leave a comment!
