I would recommend looking at a publication called "From Little Dean to Enoggera" by Joy Whaite ( on line : http://www.whaite.com/family/oldbailey/ch02.htm )or search on line for William Bailey of Wheatenhurst. Joy undertook a family search of Baileys who emigrated from Gloucestershire to New Zealand and has an extensive records.

From the parish records, a Hannah Bailey was born 12 May 1811 in Blakeney to parents Richard and Esther Bailey.

From thie above publication:-

A Richard Bailey bap. 4 March 1792 at Blakeney was born to King Bailey and Damaris (nee Waite,or Wayte). King and Damaris married 24 December 1789 at Newnham.

King Bailey bap. 21 January 1769 is believed to be born at Wheatenhurst to John Bailey and Mary (nee Gaynor).

This branch of the Bailey family were referred to by Joy as the Bailey's of Elmore but basically the Baileys of Wheatenhurst, Elmore, Hardwicke, Longney and Quedgeley in Whitstone Hundred are all related to the Baileys of Longney (Maragaret Bailey of Longney Will 1547).

The above was also researched by Marie Lawry (a descendant of William Fowle Bailey)who produced a publication in New Zealand called "The Family Saga" which concentrates on the NZ branch stemming from William Fowle Bailey. I have managed to acquire a secondhand copy (paperback) which is somewhat delicate, however, provides an extensive history of the familys that emigrated.

Produced from research in the 1980's and 90's both these publications are very useful, however, they do not claim to be a complete authority (there are some errors).

Kind Regards
