descendants)
The IGI is not very accurate: Link to James Pawsey IGI
The birthdate of 1692 is suspect, we
have not been able to find a record of this so far
In the
marriage record James Pawsey was recorded as of Stanningfield.
Stanningfield is 2.5 miles north of Shimpling. We have
examined the records of Stanningfield and find no
trace of James.
The fact he
was recorded as of Stanningfield probably means he
was living there at the time.
We are
looking in neighbouring parishes for traces.
James is the
Key to linking to the Shimpling tree. It would be astonishing if he is not part
of the tree but we do not have proof at the moment.
There were
James Pawseys dying who could be his father. Clues
may lie there
