Thank You Ozi Christina and Ginny for the census records on William and Rebecca Parsey and also the information on Rebecca death...I am trhilled as to the amount of material that has came my way from my thread regarding the Parsey family...Just for the record my link is with Thomas Parsey b 1795 St John Hackney to Thomas Parsey and Mary Hall....Thomas Parsey b 1795 married Eliza Prothero 1819 St Andrews Holborn and moved to Llanfrynach Brecon Wales where I believe the Prothero family resided .....my GGgrandfather Thomas Parsey was born1824 Best wishes to All.

Samuel Parsey bap 13.9.1807 born 23.8.1807 St Johns Hackney

2) Samuel - isn't this who we started searching for in the first place? Found in 1841, 1851 & 1861.

3) Robert - no luck so far. Perhaps he died before 1841.

These are from the IGI. All shown with father Thomas, so may be yours. Unfortunately, no mother's name is noted for any of them.

Thank you Christina and Ginny once again for the research material on Thomas Parsey and his family and especially for his year of Death .I will send for the Death Cert and it may give me his fathers name..
I believe that Thomas Parsey and Sarah family had other siblings not listed on the 1841 census
William Parsey b 12.10.1800 St Johns Hackney could also be another William Parsey b 1807 Hackney,
Samuel Parsey bap 13.9.1807 born 23.8.1807 St Johns Hackney
Robert Parsey b 19.10.1808 St Johns Hackney.I believe that the three children are listed to Thomas and Sarah Parsey
The material above was obtained some 30 years ago from trips made abroad and it is only now two members of the Parsey family are putting the pieces together.

Allan and Kay
