Hi Jen, Jeff and Mark if you're still there.

If it helps, of the two Ellens Trigg mentioned, I am linked to the one who was the daughter of Jesse Trigg and Ann nee Hart.

Jesse and Ann were married in the Westbury-on-Severn registration district on 23 Sep 1857, and Ellen was their eldest child. The others, in order and all born in the Westbury RD in years up to 1875, were Sarah, Thomas, Mary Ann, Jesse, Alice, David and Annie.

I do not have anything on an earlier Trigg than the elder Jesse, born c. 1834, or any Harts earlier than his wife Ann.

Of the siblings I have just listed, Mary Ann married Richard Sterry of Lydney (1859-1941) and died at Lydney on 29 Sep 1944. Richard's younger brother Henry Sterrey (spelling changed for no known reason) was my great-grandfather (1864-1926.)

I am aware of grandchildren of Richard Sterry and Mary Ann nee Trigg but am unable to describe them due to privacy conventions.

Sources: the parish records on this site, data on www.sterryworldwide.com, and asking around Lydney.
