The family do go back to the early 1500's in Brailes and the surrounding area... it's just linking them all up :(

Yeah the local OPC (Pickards Pink Pages) doesn't have anything.... sorry should have mentioned that in the list.

I am planning another visit to the Warwick RO at some point soon.

I have quite a fair bit on this lot already! I have got as far back as William & Elizabeth (maiden name unknown).

William's son Richard (b1790, Brailes, Warwickshire) married Mary Ann Hawtin (b 1791, Burton Dassett) 22 Apr 1812 in Brailes, Warwickshire.

Some of the family in 1851.

1851 RG number: HO107 Piece: 2076 Folio: 398 Page: 22
Reg. District: Shipston-On-Stour Sub District: Shipston on Stour
Address: Cottage, Cherrington County: Warwickshire
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BISHOP, Richard Head Married M 61 1790 Ag Labourer Brailes Warwickshire
BISHOP, Mary A Wife Married F 58 1793 Ag Lab Wife Brailes Warwickshire
BISHOP, Louisa Daughter Unmarried F 17 1834 Home Cherrington Warwickshire
BISHOP, Eliza Daughter Unmarried F 14 1837 Home Cherrington Warwickshire

I have spent the evening searching around a bit for a marriage of William & Elizabeth, or siblings for Richard.

If anyone has any useful suggestions, i'm open to offers.

I have searched Familyseach, Ancestry, FreeREG, RootWeb, FMP.

I know there are probably more sites out there i haven't searched, but i'm not a member of everywhere.... or even (as some of you will agree) my age is against me in remembering where some good sites are.

Looking forward to your replies.
