GANDER   See in tree

 

There is a tree on familysearch.org taking the Gravelys back to 1520 and other branches going back much further, one to the year 875!  I have not tried to verify any of this, since Jane Gander's birth has not been confirmed.

They were married in Itchingfield, Sussex, 12 July 1731.  Thomas died in Cowfold, Sussex in 1782 and was buried 8 August, Susanna died there in 1784 and was buried 7 June.

Thomas was born Cowfold 22 May 1738.

Mary Wadey ***  (c.1742 - 1793)

Mary was born about 1742 in Sussex, probably in Henfield or Billinghurst.

They were married in Henfield 24 March 1761.  Thomas died there in 1792, aged 53, and was buried 31 January. Mary died there in 1826 and was buried there 11 January.

Their children were all baptised in Woodmancote except Henry:

Henry Gander was baptised in Cowfold 2 February and buried 7 February 1763.

Thomas Gander was baptised 5 October 1766.

James Gander was baptised 19 February 1769.  He married Elizabeth Shaw in Woodmancote in 1792.  Their children were Harriet (1792), Henry (1794 - 1794), William (1795), Charlotte (1798), John (1800), James (1803), Thomas (1806) and George (1810).

William Gander was baptised 6 September 1772.  He married Hannah Stoner there 15 April 1805.  Their children were Jane (1810), William (1812), Charles (1815) and Mark (1818).

Jane Gander *** was born about 1779 (from her age on the 1841 census and when she died).  She was living in Cowfold at the time of her marriage.  No record of her birth or baptism has been found but this family looks the most likely, given the DNA matches with several Wadey descendants.   She married John Martin ***.

Henry Gander was baptised 8 July 1781.
