rsharp on 2006-09-19 00:45:26I live in California and am trying to piece together information about a William Sear, b. England about 1835 and his first wife, Elizabeth (Lizzie) Bryant, also born in England. I think that William was in the United States by 1850, and he and Elizabeth had a daughter born in Connecticut 1866. Lizzie died young, and William's second wife was also English. The fact that William and second wife Helen had a son named Claydon makes me wonder if Steeple Claydon was William's place of origin. Appreciate any suggestion to tie William to English origin.

allycat on 2006-09-19 00:51:10Hi Roberta, Nice to hear from you. As a point of reference, click on ROADS above to goto the surname wiki page. Then click on one name study - Roads family of Buckinghamshire. Perhaps your relative is in there. Webmaster is also a Californian!
You can also research more on your English forbears by joining up as a free member of rootschat.com and find ancestors on the Census' 1841 through to 1901.
That's all I can think of at present.

Rachmaninoff on 2011-11-05 23:16:30I'm looking to see if there is a Sear that married an Ayres (poss. Thomas Ayres, carpenter) of Steeple Claydon. Thomas Ayres (occ. carpenter) had a son by the name of William SEAR Ayres, born about 1824 at Steeple Claydon. Both of William's marriage certificates say that his father was Thomas Ayres, carpenter (no mother listed). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
