The Maxey and Upper Upper Wagstaff Line


This page is part of Irene Gladys Whiteman's web-site.

It contains the Maxey line and the uppermost segment of the Wagstaff family-tree. Caroline Wagstaff (1820-1893) was Rene's Great-Grandmother. She married a Whiteman and bore Rene's Grandfather Henry William Whiteman.

This page is entirely from the tree sent to me by Jane Gravelle of Nazeing Essex in December 2006. She says "the pre 1800 tree is speculative at this stage, having been gathered only from the Mormons free IGI". One day one of us may work up the energy to purchase the Bedfordshire Parish Registers back to the 1500s on microfiche from the Bedfordshire Family History Society or in hard copy from the Bedfordshire Archives.
