Hi all. Hoping for some help with where would I find/search for possible information on an ancester who I think moved from Essex to Newmarket in the 1760s (borth of one son). I am pretty certain that they were involved with horses (son was a groom/coachman) and I was wondering if there was any register of people who were employed at the races/Jocky club back then.

Thanks

Thanks Gins. Havent been on for a while and forgot how it all works lol.

I have charles stacey in barnet on 1851 census born Newmarket. Baptism has father john stacey and mum charlotte who i think were married in Maldon essex. There are other children from baptism records born wickham bishops to john and charlotte stacey - hence me thinking the family originated from essex and moved to newmarket at least by 1768.

Trying to get confirmation if link and also to find out what the family were doing in essex and also newmarket. I have info on charles stacey and family.

Thanks for any assustance

Many thank Chris

The marriage for John and charlotte is the one I am going on. And the marriage of son Charles to Lucy is correct. What I am trying to confirm/eliminate is the connection between John and Charlotte with birth of Charles in Newmarket and the Stacey 'siblings' born to John and Charlotte in wickham bishops - Charles being the youngest. I have a death certificate for a Charlotte Stacey in Newmarket aged around 80 (sorry tree not to hand) with what looks like the beginnings of "widow of". But this is crossed through.

Thanks for the links. I am picking up the search again after a couple of years hoping more info is out there.

Thanks again to all and any help appreciated.
