Hi all,
Could some luvverly person have a look for this man in 1861.

Born- c1827. Bracknell, Berkshire.

In 1871 he is a Butler.
In 1881 he is out of employment.

He was married to Elizabeth Goodey in 1855 Marylebone.
I have his wife in 1861 with daughters, Catherine and Sarah in Marylebone.

Any help please.

Steve.:)

Hi CP,
That appears to be a different Joseph.

I already have my Joseph in 1871 in Knightsbidge in London as a Butler.

But I will look your find up, just in case.

Still need him in 1851.

Thanks.

Hi CP,

I really don't know how you do it. Thank you so much.

Will have another little dig about in Bracknell and see who else I can find.

You are a true asset to all of us.

Thanks again.:kissu:

I have searched Berkshire for Hessey/Hersey/Hosey/Nossey/Nessey/Kessey and just about any other .....sey.
I'm now reasonably sure this is the man you've found. Need to get the old parish registers and certs now.

Thanks again Cranky.O0

Am researching Hessey family from Easthampstead and am fairly sure that I have Mary Hessey (b. 1824) from same family as your Joseph. Recent information from Scottish death certificate gives her parents as William and Catherine and his occupation as shoemaker. She would probably have left home by 1841, and marries David Sibbald in London 1846. Family documented thereafter.
