Pawsey Genealogy
Roger or Richard ?
Frederick
Pawsey was born to Roger and Sarah Pawsey on 23 July 1811 he was baptised in
Bury St Edmunds St James on 17th January 1813. His wife was Sarah
Taylor of this Parish. Interestingly the occupation of Roger was put as
“Taylor”, we do not know if this was a misspelling for tailor or a mistake in
which the wife maiden name was in the wrong column. Link to
Copy of Register
Looking for
the marriage of Roger and Sarah the only one in the marriage index is of
Richard Pawsey marrying Sarah Taylor on 16 March 1803 at St Andrew by the
Wardrobe in London. Link to Copy of Register. There are signatures of R
Pawsey and Sarah Taylor as Bride & Groom and James Taylor and Sarah as
witnesses.
A Roger
Pawsey was born to William Pawsey & Ruth Mills on 18th Nov 1776
in Bury St Edmunds St Mary. The fiches of this are missing from Suffolk record
office.
We think it
is very unlikely that two R Pawseys both married
Sarah Taylors at roughly the same time.
We think
that Roger Pawsey did marry Sarah Taylor from London and there was an error
filling in the register.
