Maggie, have you seen the Earls Colne project website?
http://linux02.lib.cam.ac.uk/earlscolne/ They've indexed every person mentioned in any doc relating to Earls Colne since the year dot, including parish records. Some of my OH's family are from there and I managed to find quite a bit about them. Edited to add - h'mm, I've checked and can't see any Lewseys listed at all. How sure are you he was born in Earls Colne? Last edited by Lindsay; 29-10-11 at 19:57. |

whoooo thank you I found him transcribed as Lowsey:-
http://linux02.lib.cam.ac.uk/earlsco...m/70302365.htm Parents Jonathan and Susan Lowsey. Its a brilliant site but of course you have trawl through it but I don't mind. oooh and loads of other stuff about them, I see if you click on the names it takes you to other references... Going to have have a good look tomorrow I found a few names that are also connected to another part of the Lewsey family OH's family has two strands of this family running through two sides of his family.

Yes, it's brilliant, isn't it?
Lewsey is a name that's just asking to be mis-spelt! I see they provide a list of alternatives |

Love it.
I believe his mother was Susanna Sadler http://linux02.lib.cam.ac.uk/earlsco...e/70100740.htm Although they haven't quite got the Lewsey name but I expect its them. |

I have found other stuff for some other families I have in OH's tree - offshoots but still re-inforces some information I have for all sorts of people. I've spent the last few days looking at it. Its a shame they don't have a search function but hey the amount of work that has gone into it is impressive. |

I just wish they would cite some source or other on Ancestry trees I always do mine isn't public but at least the 12 people with access can see where I got the info from. Really irritates me. Last edited by maggie_4_7; 01-11-11 at 20:06. |

You're right, if you don't know where the information's come from you really can't trust it.
I just wish my OH's family had stayed in Earls Colne for more than a couple of generations! |
