Names and dates to help would be useful.

You really need to be more specific. There are many Vatchers in Dorset.

What sort of time scale are you talking about please?

What has Morey got to do with Vatchers etc

Jayne Report 6 Oct 2013 21:08

Hi Glitterbaby,
The Moreys, Vatchers and Vincents are part of finding Gillian Brooks as she does not have all of her information and any information that would help with her tree and any information would be greatly appreciates to get me to the right person.
Any information that you could help with these trees and any information that you could find would be really helpful, as I am trying to help a friend called Gillian Brooks
Thank you
Jayne

Still not clear as to how they fit into the puzzle

Did any of them marry into the Vatcher etc families.

Really need a bit more info.

Jayne, can you tell us please the name of the "right person" that you are trying to get?

Well I am going around in circles with this as the children of the Morey family do not match the census details either

I think that the family you list in 1871 is a different family. The Jonathan Moray is 5 years older than John has a different birthplace and also he appears on the 1861 and 1851 census as Jonathan - not John.

Jeal appears not to have married.

No idea who Alfred and Frederick are as they do not appear on 1851 or 1861 census. Nor finding any baptisms for them either

So still not clear where we are going with this family at the moment

rootgatherer

rootgatherer Report 6 Oct 2013 21:47

GB - I think that Alfred and Frederick are the sons of John. Unless I am getting confused, I think that it is Jonathan's family that Jayne is looking for.

GlitterBaby

GlitterBaby Report 6 Oct 2013 21:53

Agree but the confusion is with John or Jonathan as sometimes the names are interchangeable.

So which one are we supposed to be following and how does that get us to Vatcher ect.

Who married who ?

rootgatherer

rootgatherer Report 6 Oct 2013 22:13

All very confusing!!

Jayne, I think that you need to give us some solid factual information to work back from please.

Until we have some clear guidance on which family we are searching for, I will leave this one for tonight.

GlitterBaby

GlitterBaby Report 6 Oct 2013 22:15

Can you please explain how we get from Vatchers, Sandell, Vincent and Leggs in Dorset which you requested to Morey family as I am slowing losing the will to continue with this

rootgatherer

rootgatherer Report 6 Oct 2013 22:18

Afraid I have lost the will on this one GB.
