Skeggs from Hertfordshire family of Thomas and Charlotte - updated 1/2007
(Janette) On the assumption that the family we focussed on thru the 1881, 1891 & 1901 census were the correct one for our Elizabeth Sarah Skeggs (which I think they are), and based on the fact that the Henry
(Elizabeth's dad) was born Tewin, Herts according to the census, I have found the following: |
1841 Thomas Skeggs and family
Oaken Valley, Tewin, some three miles from Datchworth |
1851 Thomas Skeggs and family | |
THOMAS SKEGG Christening: 20 MAR 1791 Tewin, Hertford, England Father: WILLIAM SKEGG Mother: ELIZABETH |
Thos Skegg 45 abt 1796 Hertfordshire Ag Lab |
Thos Skeggs 42 abt 1809 Tewin, Herts Head Farm
labourer |
Perhaps
Deaths Mar 1857 (>99%) Skeggs Thomas Ware 3a 117 |
And here appears to be the marriage of above mentioned Thomas & Charlotte: (Ron) An LDS member submitted the marriage data and the birth dates look like guesses Marriage: 03 NOV 1823 Datchworth, Hertford, England Thomas Skegg About 1798 Of, Datchworth, Hertford, England Charlotte Parker About 1802 Of, Hatfield, Hertford, England see Parker Family

Charlttie Skegg 35 abt 1806 Hertfordshire |

Tewin (about 2 miles S.E. from Welwyn Station, G.N.R.) is most charmingly situated on high ground above the river Maran. The village is divided into the Upper and Lower Green; the church, � mile from the latter, stands on a hill that slopes steeply to the river. . Tewin Water, in the park, N.W., is prettily surrounded by trees. Beautiful walks may be taken in almost any direction, especially in the trend of the river Maran towards Digswell and Welwyn.
