Thomas MEEK 1821 Staunton (General)

by slowhands , proud of his ancient Dean Forest roots, Wednesday, March 06, 2013, 13:00 (4282 days ago) @ gill webb

To add to all of Slowhands brilliant research for you, George Meek married Eliza Davis 1 Jun 1818 Cwmcarvan, Monmouthshire. 6 children in all Eliza Meek 1818 married Luke Roberts;Thomas Meek 1821 married Louisa Baylis; Maria Meek 1825 died 1826; Elizabeth Meek 1831; William Meek 1833; George Meek 1835 married Mary Ann Jenkins 1857.

George Meek died 1843 age 54 in burial record not consistant with 1841 census but possible parents are Thomas Meek & Sarah Moorfield [Marfell]? married 1789 Newland.

After George death Elizabeth married Thomas Lewis both widows 16 Sep 1844, incidently this is same date so likely double marriage of Thomas to Louisa Baylis.

Hope this extra data is helpful, if anyone can confirm that George is son of Thomas & Sarah I would much appreciate this.
