I have just found this website - since yesterday I learned that my great great great grandfather William Fisher was born in Malswick about 1807. He married someone called Mary ten years older than him (according to the census) from Pauntley.

I know this is a long shot - based solely on our names and Gloucestershire - but do you know whether we have a family connection?

John,

Are you still looking into this family? I have only just come across these messages and was so glad to find them. I am trying to research this family at the moment for someone. I start with John Samuel Fisher b. 13 Jun 1906 Lydbrook with Parents John Fisher and Emma Lear. John Fisher was b. abt. 1870 Lydbrook with parents Thomas Fisher and Emily White. I was a little confused to say the least about them having fathers with different surnames and then coming across John on the census with his parents having different names altogether lol!

Please let me know if you were able to make any further headway with this family.

Regards
Jo.

Bastardy Orders etc (reply)

unknown — Sun, 08 Jul 2007 03:00:06 +0000

Thanks for the info Slowhands you may well have solved my mystery of Thomas Fisher and Emily White whose fathers on their marriage certificate of 1865 have different surnames ie. George Combes and Thomas Allaway.
I have found what may well be a bastardy order against a George Coombes in 1841 the birth year of Thomas Coombes .I cannot find a similar order for Thomas Allaway or an entry for a birth entry for Emily White/Allawy 1840-1841 however.

Bastardy Orders etc (reply)

slowhands — Fri, 06 Jul 2007 10:32:34 +0000

For the illegitimate children of paupers there are also bastardy examinations, bastardy bonds (executed by the putative father), and bastardy orders. These documents are of particular value when the identity of the natural father is not indicated in other sources such as the parish registers.

The Gloucestershire Records Office holds some of these Parish records.

I wonder ??

Born out of wedlock

unknown — Fri, 06 Jul 2007 08:10:52 +0000

If somebody was born out of wedlock in the 1820- 1860 period was the father guilty of a crime of basterdary and if so were records kept which could be viewed on line.
I ask becuase my greatgreat grandfather Thomas Fisher of Lydbrook may fall into this category as i cannot find any birth details for him (born 1840 +- 1year) and his marriage certificate shows his father as a George Combs.
kind regards
john fisher
