Greetings to one and all. I am looking for any leads to the father of one William Hitchins, who died in 1687 (his inventory shows him being in Pamington, near Ashchurch and is believed to have been born in Gloucester in 1638 (recorded at Holy Trinity).

I have leads to a William Hitchins (b. 1562 in St Mary, Hasfield) but the age gap is clearly too big. Two other leads are William of Hasfield (b. 1606) but marriage/wife is not known and a William marrying an Elizabeth Bennett in Upleadon in 1587 but no children found.

If anyone has any inkling as to the origins of William b. 1638 I would greatly appreciate being pointed in the right direction.

Thanks, George Hitchins
