Herbert/Phelps family in Gloucestershire (General)

by Jean Herbert @, Sunday, April 23, 2006, 03:57 (6781 days ago)

I am researching my husban's family, Herbert/Phelps. I have found that they originated in the Forest of Dean, not in Yorkshire, where we live, as previously thought. First record we have is Elija Herbert circa 1815, in 1840 living in St. Bravles? Next is John and Eliza Phelps address not known circa 1818/1823. Decendants of Thomas Herbert and Eliza Phelps moved to Normanton near Leeds Yorkshire circa 1881 or just previous. I have census records of these and information as to the Herbert side of the family. I am having difficulty tracing the Phelps family in Yorkshire. I would be pleased to hear from anyone who is also researching this branch of the family. Regards Jean
